“If you ever come across anything suspicious like this item, please do not pick it up, contact your local law and/or enforcement agency for assistance”.
A “Notice to Mariners” has been issued to vessels operating in the Thames Estuary near Nore Sands due to unexploded ordnance having been found. This location is closer to the Kent side of the estuary than the Southend side, but the coastguard in Southend has warned any mariners planning to navigate in this area. A HM Coastguard spokesman said: “This only impacts any vessels that were to operate out of Southend intending to navigate in this area as an advisory notice to stay clear as directed by the Notice to Mariners. “Because such items can be so dangerous, if you ever see something suspicious or out of the ordinary on the beach or in the sea, do not touch it, move it or take it home. “If you are unsure, let the experts decide if it is safe. Move to a safe space and call 999 and ask for the Coastguard so our teams can investigate.”
If you find anything that appears to be an explosive device, do not touch it, leave it where it is and call the police. We will contact the appropriate agencies to properly dispose of the item.
