‘Naked Rambler’ jailed for trekking nude

A MAN known as the “Naked Rambler” who was attempting to walk from Land’s End to John O’Groats was jailed yesterday for three months.

Stephen Gough, aged 44, was found guilty at a trial at Dingwall Sheriff Court after he was seen trekking nude through the centre of a Highland village while trying to complete his quest.

Gough, of Eastleigh, Hampshire, who was convicted of a breach of the peace and breaching bail conditions, unsuccessfully tried to argue that his nude walk was permitted under the rights of freedom of expression in the Human Rights Act.
