A WOMAN has been given a restraining order after turning up to an address and repeatedly knocking on the windows and doors.

Kimberly Rickerby, 35, pleaded guilty to harassment without violence when she appeared before Workington Magistrates Court.

Rickerby harassed the woman, who lives in Maryport, between May and August this year.

 Magistrates imposed a 12-month community order with a 26-day rehabilitation programme and 15 rehabilitation activity requirement days.

A restraining order was granted which bans her from contacting the victim by any means, for three years, or from going to a named street in Maryport.

Rickerby, of Newlands Gardens, Workington, must pay £85 costs.
