A World War Two bomb which was discovered in Newtownards in County Down has been blown up in a controlled explosion.

The 500kg (1,100lb) SC-500 bomb was found at a building site at the Rivenwood housing development on Thursday.

Four hundred nearby homes were evacuated on Saturday with residents told they could be out of their homes for five days.

Military experts had worked to reduce any damage from dealing with the bomb by constructing a sand-filled structure around it.

The bomb was dropped on Newtownards by the Luftwaffe during raids on Belfast in 1941.
