The bomb disposal unit was called in following the discovery of a suspected explosive device in a St Albans street.
Police officers cordoned off Salisbury Avenue while experts examined the item, which had been found in a garden.
It was subsequently discovered that the artefact was in fact remnants of an 19th century shell which was not live and posed no risk to the public.
