"Lewis is someone I know well having worked within the him before at Hartlepool. He's a very good character and has experience, despite his age, of being involved in promotion-winning teams," said manager Dave Challinor.

"He'll give us real good versatility down that right-hand side, the one area in the team where we needed some depth. I know he'll fit into the group really well and we are all looking forward to his time with us."

Director of football Simon Wilson added: "Lewis is a good footballer who brings nice versatility for us down in the right defensive positions, and comes to help us after the unfortunate recent loss of Kyle Knoyle.

"His experience and quality means he is ready to slot right in. It's a real positive that he's worked with Dave previously and already lives locally, so can come in and hit the ground running."
