Butlins was evacuated after the discovery of a suspicious package.

Police got the call just after 2pm informing them of the package and as a precautionary safety measure, people were being evacuated from the location, on Roman Bank.

Fire crews and police were in attendance as a bomb disposal team was called in which later found it to be a false alarm and the package no longer deemed as suspicious.

Staff and visitors were then allowed to re-enter the site after 4pm.
