Monster paedophile banned from multiple parks, housing estates and streets until 2045 Steven Loveridge mapped the movements of young girls and used dice and playing cards to play a warped game of chance to determine his victims and the kind of offending he would carry out Steven Loveridge (Image: Dyfed-Powys Police ) A sexual predator who carried out detailed surveillance on children has been hit with a court order banning him from entering named parks, rugby and football clubs, housing estates, streets and footpaths, and going within 100 metres of any school. Steven Loveridge mapped the movements and habits of young girls and researched the best spots from which to watch them as well as plotting "escapes routes" he could use which avoided CCTV coverage. He also used dice and playing cards to play a "warped" game of chance to determine his victims and the kind of offending he would carry out. Last month the 60-year-old was given an extended sentence as a dangerous offender at Swansea Crown Court. Following the sentence police described Loveridge as a "monster". Now, Loveridge has been made the subject of a 20-year sexual harm prevention order (SHPO) which is designed to control his behaviour once he is released from custody. Under the order the defendant is prohibited from loitering within 100 metres of any school, nursery or playgroup and is banned from entering Blackpill in Swansea, Victoria Gardens in Neath town centre, Gorsedd Park in Ystradgynlais, Gwynfryn Park in Alltwen, and Ystrad Fawr Nature Reserve in Ystradgynlais. He is also banned from entering or loitering around Ystradgynlais Sports Centre and Penrhos playing fields in Ystradgynlais as well as Trebanos, Alltwen, and Ystalyfera rugby clubs and Pontardawe Town, Cwm Wanderers, and Ystradgynlais football clubs. Article continues below Loveridge is also banned from entering multiple residential streets and housing estates around Ystradgynlais, Ystalyfera, and Ynysmeudwy including Tawe Park, Glantawe Park, Gurnos, and the estate off Hodgson's Road, as well as from using a section of Cycle Route 43 around Ystalyfera. He is also banned from the seafront on Mumbles Road, Swansea, unless he is only passing through and does not stop, and is banned from loitering at any bus stop unless he is catching a bus. The order also imposes a series of restrictions and controls on the defendant's use of electronic devices and the internet, and bans him from entering and staying in any property where an under-18 lives without written approval from social services and from having contact with under-18s - save what is "inadvertent and not reasonably avoidable in the course of lawful daily life" - unless he his supervised by a parent who has knowledge of his conviction. The order will run until June, 2045. For the latest court reports sign up to our crime newsletter The extent of Loveridge's interest in children came to light after he was arrested for approaching young girls in shops in the Swansea Valley and exposing himself and making sexual comments. On arrest he was found to be carrying coloured dice and modified playing cards which it emerged were part of a "warped" game of chance he used to determine his victims. You can read the details of the case here A subsequent search of his home in Cyfyng Road in Ystalyfera uncovered maps and documents showing his detailed research of the movements of girls - many of whom he had assigned names to such as "Ponty Lollipop Girl" and "My Little Pony Girl" - including the routes they took to school and shops or parks they attended. Officers also uncovered videos of children he had taken with a camera on his cycle helmet and detailed notes where he recorded interactions he had had with girls in shops and other locations. Loveridge was given an extended 12 year and seven month sentence comprising six years and seven months in prison followed by an extended licence of six years. He will be a registered sex offender for the rest of his life. Article continues below Speaking after the sentencing, the officer in the case, Dyfed-Powys Police detective constable Andy Leonard, said: "The handwritten notes and audio recordings made by Steven Loveridge himself suggest that the offences he committed against the young girls in Ystradgynlais and Ystalyfera are just a glimpse of what this monster could be capable of.
