AN 18-YEAR-OLD man has denied engaging in sexual activity with a girl under the age of 16.

Ben Mayze, of London Road, Northfleet, will stand trial at Maidstone Crown Court on December 14.

He has been bailed until that date.

The charge, which Mayze has pleaded not guilty to, relates to an alleged incident in an alleyway in Meopham on December 5 last year.
