A 39-year-old man has admitted to making hundreds of indecent photographs of a child. 

Mathew Cooksey, of Somersham, has appeared in court on three charges related to making images deemed Category A, Category B and Category C in their nature.

Category A being the most severe.  

The charges state that Cooksey made 356 Category A images, 225 Category B images and 733 Category C images on or before October 26, 2022.  

The courts service says he entered a guilty plea when he appeared before Cambridge Magistrates’ Court on May 9, 2024.  

His case was then referred to Cambridge Crown Court for a hearing on June 10.
