A metal object on the beach near the Mowlem saw the team tasked to investigate the item and send photos to the military for assessment this afternoon.
Working with the Town Council a small 50metre cordon was put in place to protect the scene whilst photographs were sent for a detailed assessment.
An EOD team assessed the photos taken of the object and confirmed they were happy this was not an explosive device.
The item was removed from the beach to stop further calls and was taken away by the Council.
We would like to thank the public for their assistance whilst a small area was closed for safety reasons.
