According to Stuart Sykes, the owner of the Blue Moon Trading shop on Goodramgate, a man walked in offering to sell the device this morning.

Mr Sykes said he offered the man £5 for the item, which he says still had its original firing pin in place.

He says he then called the police who immediately evacuated and cordoned off the surrounding area.

It was not believed that the device posed a threat to the wider public, but the road was closed as a precaution, police said.

Mr Sykes said: "I didn't expect two-and-a-half hours of bomb disposal, but the police have got a job to do and they did it right."

But the leaders of Barnsley and Doncaster councils have refused to agree to the proposal and are backing a devolution deal for the whole of Yorkshire.
