A judge has told a man to expect an "inevitable" immediate custodial sentence after he pleaded guilty to sexual activity with a teenage girl in Builth Wells.
Stuart Barratt, aged 32, admitted that he committed two sexual offences against a 14-year-old when he appeared at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court on Wednesday, August 16.
Barratt, of Highfield Road, Burntwood, Walsall, will be sentenced for intentionally touching the girl on two occasions between March 1 and August 6 2020.
His defence barrister told the court that his mental health issues may affect his sentence.
The 32-year-old must return to court on conditional bail for his sentencing hearing on September 20.
The Recorder of Cardiff Her Honour Judge Tracey Lloyd-Clarke ordered that Barratt must wear an electronic tag as part of a curfew.
