A GUEST at a travellers' wedding used a bat to smash stained glass windows, causing £3,500 worth of damage.

Michael Maughan, 20, of Hurstwood Avenue, Blackburn, pleaded guilty to criminal damage at the Oaks Hotel, Reedley.

He was remanded on bail for the preparation of a pre-sentence report.

Gaffer Khan, defending, said alcohol had been provided free at the wedding and as a result his client could remember nothing of the offence.

"There were other issues at this wedding but there is no suggestion he was involved in those," said Mr Khan.
