A COUPLE have denied stealing a Dursley man's £18,000 caravan and are to stand trial at Gloucester Crown Court in the week of May 4.

Keith Williams, 48, and Portia Docherty, 37, both of Holme Road, Swindon, on Friday, MArch 27, pleaded not guilty to theft of the Elite caravan owned by Kevin Blower from his home at Lower Wick in February last year.

The court has heard the caravan was recovered when it was stopped at the M4 junction for Slough.

Williams and Docherty were bailed pending trial.
