A builder has described the moment his team unearthed anti-tank mines in a Westhampnett garden.
Bomb disposal experts were called in to detonate around 18 mines found at the property under construction at 10.50am yesterday.
Evacuated residents were allowed back into their homes yesterday with a police cordon lifted earlier this afternoon after the last of the mines had been exploded.
