THREE men have admitted involvement in break-ins at a prominent hotel and at sports club facilities.

Among premises targeted by the trio was the Chester Moor clubhouse of Northern League football club Chester-le-Street Town FC and the Ramside Hall Hotel, at Carrville.

A motorcycle jacket and a pair of jeans were taken from the hotel, while a mobile phone and charger, spirits, plus an amount of money were taken from the football clubhouse.

Both crimes were in early May last year, while there was also an unsuccessful bid to break into Durham Indoor Bowling Club, at Pity Me.

Robert Paul Stevens, 25, and 30-year-old Christopher Young each admitted charges of burglary relating to both premises, during a short hearing at Durham Crown Court last Friday.

Both also admitted taking an Audi A3 car without the owner's consent, between April 26 and May 9, also last year.

The third defendant, 18-year-old Barry Cook, admitted the Chester-le-Street Town FC burglary, and asked for an attempted burglary at the indoor bowling premises to be taken into consideration.

Sentence on all three was adjourned pending preparation of reports on them by the Probation Service.

Judge Richard Lowden remanded Stevens, of Hylton Road, and Young, of Peasemore Road, both Pennywell, Sunderland, in custody pending sentence.

Cook, of Cork Street, in Sunderland's East End, was bailed.

All three will be sentenced on a date to be fixed next month.
