Will this be a traffic offence in England ?

I was driving along a motorway and there was a pallet lying across 2 lanes. I got quite close to it because there was someone next to me, so I couldn’t change lanes. once I passed it I pulled over, reversed on the hard shoulder about 50 meters, waited for it to be clear, then I went across lane 1 to pull the pallet out of the road. Will I likely be getting a fine for doing it? As if I did hit it or someone else hit it, it would have caused a massive crash.
