Police and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) experts safely destroyed the shell in a controlled demolition in a field near the River Frome. The shell was a World War II-era two-pounder high explosive shell, designed to target vehicles during the Second World War. The bomb squad carried out a standard demolition procedure as the shell was not in a fit state to be taken back. EOD experts moved the shell to a safe location away from the river bed where they disposed of the shell by demolition.
