SUSPECTED explosive devices were discovered at Cwmbran Police Station on Tuesday, prompting an urgent evacuation of the area.
Gwent Police closed Tudor Road and evacuated nearby businesses in response to the find.
The "suspected ordnance devices" were found in a garage on police land shortly before midday on Tuesday, the force said.
Officers set up a 100-metre cordon around the area and called in the Explosive Ordnance Disposal team as a precautionary measure.
The devices were not thought to be live.
Around an hour later, the cordon was removed and people were allowed to return to their businesses.
A spokesman for Gwent Police thanked members of the public for their patience.
