A Haverfordwest man has admitted two charges of Class B drug possession.

Andrew Paul Lowndes, of High Street, pleaded guilty to possession of cannabis and amphetamine when he appeared before Haverfordwest magistrates court on Tuesday, May 15.

The court heard that 1.86g of cannabis resin and 4.45g of amphetamine were found when Lowndes was searched on April 15.

The court heard that Lowndes, 47, had a previous conviction for similar matters.

Jonathan Webb, defending, said: “It was a small amount of drugs on his person.

“He does not go out or drink, he stays in his property and occasionally takes recreational drugs.”

Lowndes was fined £80 for each offence, and ordered to pay £85 costs and a £30 surcharge.

A destruction order was made for the seized drugs.
