A live 1lb World War Two German incendiary bomb, found in a garden in Rush Hill in Bath yesterday afternoon has been safely disposed of in a controlled explosion by explosives experts.
Army explosives experts from Tidworth were called in after a woman who found the device called the police yesterday morning.
Police officers set up a 100-metre cordon around the area and advised nearby residents to stay in their homes whilst the scene was made safe.
The explosive ordnance team took the bomb into a nearby field and dealt with it.
