1,000 bombs found on beach
A guarded cordon had to be put in place after the ordnance at Mappleton beach near Hornsea, east Yorkshire, became exposed over the weekend. Bomb disposal units were brought in and were still dealing with the incident last night.
Mike Puplett, watch manager at Humber Coastguard, said the area was used by the RAF during the war and the cliffs were used for target practice.
