A veteran folk and rock singer who has performed alongside Pink Floyd is facing charges over historic sexual offences against an under-age girl.
Roy Harper, of County Cork, Ireland, is due to appear at Hereford Magistrates' Court on Monday accused of nine sexual offences charges in total, West Mercia Police said.
A spokesman for the force said: "The summons relates to two counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a girl under 13, three counts of indecent assault on a girl under 14 and four counts of gross indecency with a girl under 14.
"The charges are in connection with offences alleged to have taken place in Herefordshire between 1975 and 1977 and relate to one victim."
The summons was issued to the musician on October 16, after he was voluntarily interviewed by police at Heathrow Airport on February 22.
