Canon Mortimer Stanley's trial due to start on 2 November 2015

Canon Mortimer Stanley, 83, former parish priest in Norden, Rochdale, appeared at Manchester Crown Court on Friday (6 March 2015) via a video link from Limerick in Ireland.
He pleaded not guilty to 19 separate counts of indecent assault involving 10 young girls and will now face a trial in Manchester in November.

Stanley was parish priest at St Vincent de Paul RC Church in Norden, Rochdale, and the alleged victims were all pupils at the neighbouring St Vincent’s RC Primary School on Edenfield Road in Norden.
