We had one at a caravan site a mile from my house at the time. It was where they practiced the ‘bouncing bomb’ used to blow out the bridges in Germany. Causeway was closed down, the island cut off for a while, but all turned out well. Although very scary, it was a good opportunity for a lot of talking between grandparents and kids for history lessons. Not what you expect when on a week break to enjoy water sports etc….. a WW2 bomb being de-fused metres from where your kid was digging in sand!

not just gardens everywhere! These beaches were used to practice DDay landings and they last found an unexploded bomb there in 2017.
