A WOMAN is to face trial at Exeter Crown Court accused of starting fires at three homes in Bradninch and Sandford.

Charlotte Godbeer (36), formerly of Passmore Road, Bradninch, but now on remand at Eastwood Park Prison near Bristol, appeared before Judge David Evans by video link.

She pleaded not guilty to two counts of arson with intent to endanger life, at Passmore Road on June 13, 2021 and Sunnyside, Sandford, on August 23, 2021, and one of arson being reckless whether life was endangered at Passmore Road on September 27, 2021.

Judge Evans adjourned the case for a trial next year and remanded Godbeer in custody.
