People are being advised to be cautious approaching washed-up metal objects on the Lincolnshire coast.

Mablethorpe Coastguard posted on social media that an unexploded bomb had been found.

They said a military bomb disposal unit carried out a controlled explosion on Mablethorpe’s main beach on Monday 22 April.

The coastguard team said bad weather and high tides can expose dangerous objects.

A spokesperson said: “Never touch or move unexploded ordnance.

"call to 999 and ask for the Coastguard."
