Police have locked down streets around Wood Lane and evacuated Westfield following the discovery of an unexploded WW2 bomb in Ariel way, in the building site north of the shopping centre.  So this is not, as first feared, a terrorist attack. As we reported back in March, Westfield is a potential terrorist target, highlighted by the terror group Al-Shabaab. Right now the area is cordoned off - so avoid Wood Lane and Westfield.
