Unexploded bombs that may date from World War II were discovered Wednesday morning on a beach in eastern Scotland, authorities said. Part of Nairn Beach was blocked off, the Highland News reported. Bomb disposal experts from Edinburgh were brought in to defuse the devices. Northern Constabulary described the devices as 2-inch mortar bombs. In a statement, police said East Beach in Nairn had been reopened. Nairn is an ancient fishing port east of Inverness that has been a popular beach and golfing resort for 150 years. The beach was used to train British troops for the D-Day landings during World War II.
