    This happens because your hosting has DirectoryListing enabled. This means that when you call up the wp-includes directory, you see all the files contained there. And a GoogleBot naturally includes them in the index, since this is not blocked.

    I have 2 recommendations for this:
    a) Deactivate the DirectoryListing in your hosting. Your hoster’s support should be able to explain to you how to do this.
    b) Add the following line to robots.txt at https://abledomestics.co.uk/robots.txt:

    Disallow: /wp-includes

    Thanks a lot for this. I have edited the robots txt.
    Regards.
