HC Deb 22 March 1950 vol 472 c118W
Mr. Osborne

asked the Secretary of State for Air if he is aware that the intensive explosion of obsolete bombs and ammunition on the beach at Theddlethorpe, North Lincolnshire, is causing anxiety and grave concern to those who live in the district; and if he will have these demolitions carried out elsewhere

Mr. A. Henderson

No bombs or ammunition has been exploded on the beach at Theddlethorpe, but only some condemned photographic flashes. I am sorry if the noise has been disturbing but I can assure the hon. Member that there was no danger to the local inhabitants. Instructions have now been given for the demolition of these photographic flashes to be carried out elsewhere.

Forward to
