A LANGLEY Mill couple have spoken of their horror at finding a World War Two grenade in their back garden.
Chris Nixon, 28, of Baily Brook Drive was digging in his back garden on the afternoon of Wednesday March 10, when he made the grim discovery.

He immediately shouted his partner Ebony, 27, who dialled 999. Police arrived within minutes and residents on the street were immediately evacuated while a bomb squad were called out to investigate.
