Tax on US Social Security Retirement Benefit

in Cutting tax
Hi, I'm a British citizen living in the UK.
Back in the early 80's I worked in the USA for a few years. Now that I
am retired I submitted an application to the US Social Security
Administration to find out if I was entitled to any retirement benefit.
To my surprise they have come back and said 'yes' I can receive a small
benefit from them.
My question is, how do I treat this for tax
purposes? Is it taxed only in the UK or do I need to submit a tax
return to the IRS in the US? Any guidance would be appreciated.
PS, I've already posted this question on another MSE forum but it was suggested I also post it here.
