Town lake searched for WWII bombs
The Army is to search a mid Wales lake to see if ammunition was dumped there after World War II.
Powys Council has been told by people living in Llandrindod Wells that items of ordnance may have been tipped into the town lake at the end of the war.
Army personnel will use a boat fitted with sophisticated metal detecting equipment to make a sweep of the lake later this month.
A decision will be made on what steps to take if to any items are found.
