Suspicious item on the beach

The team were called today to the beach by the Bull and Boat after a beach walker located a possible piece of ordnance.

Part of the beach was temporary cordoned off whilst a team from the Royal Navy attended from Portsmouth.

During the incident the item was located close to the wall and further detailed pictures were sent to the Bomb disposal team.

On their arrival they checked the item and confirmed it was a military item but was safe.

If you see find something on the beach please call 999 - Coastguard

Never move  any item found or dig around the item.

A massive thank you to the Bull and Boat who kindly provided support to the team.
