I saw [url= https://goo.gl/photos/RVb6cL9HEp9p52vK8 ]this thing[/url] at low tide at the weekend. I thought it might possibly be a WWII bomb (they occasionally get washed up on the Essex coast) and reported it to the police who in turn got the bomb squad to have a look at it.
They said it was 'not an explosive device' and I felt a bit silly. However, I still don't know what it is. Any ideas?
No idea - but I would have done exactly the same.
It's a flux capacitor.
have you got any other photos of it?

Did they take it away anyway so no one else phones them up?
My guess (if it's not a bomb), towed sonar? Or a weather station/bouy that's come adrift.
I don't have any other photos I'm afraid. They did take it away.
Looks like some sort of filter to me.
My bet is it's some sort of submarine/ship deployed sonar bouy.

No need to feel silly - what you did was perfectly sensible.
