Hide AdBraham, from Durham Street, on the town’s Headland, was also placed on a restraining order to prevent him from contacting his victim either “directly or indirectly” for the next two years.
In addition, he must pay her £100 in compensation.
No order was made for court costs and Braham’s guilty plea was taken into account when his sentence was calculated.
No action was taken on a charge of committing a further offence while subject to a conditional discharge imposed by the same court in June of last year.
