A man and woman who are accused of allowing their premises to be used for the supply of hard drugs have been released on bail by a judge.

Sharon Howell and Lee Hulbert are said to have permitted the trade in heroin and crack cocaine to take place at a house in Chippenham.

Howell, 34, and Hulbert, 31, are accused of allowing the trade to take place from a premises on Fitzwarren Close, Pewsham, on July 1.

No charges were put to the pair during the brief hearing at Swindon Crown Court on Friday and they did not enter any pleas.

Judge Alistair McGrigor adjourned the case to Friday, December 12, and released Howell, of Waiblingen Way, Devizes, and Hulbert, of Buckingham Avenue Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, on unconditional bail until then.
