It is the back garden find that has shellshocked everyone. Landscape gardeners Aidan Carroll and Eoin O’Sullivan have unearthed what they believe is a Second World War-era bomb shelter while working in the back garden of Jean Walsh’s suburban Cork City home. Ms Walsh, who bought the 1920s-built house near Douglas with her late husband, Dermot, some 48 years ago, and where they raised their family, said they always knew there was something lurking beneath their lawn. “Some of our neighbours had heard about this house having a bomb shelter before and they thought it might still be there,” she said. We could see what I now know is an air vent, popping up through the lawn, but in all the time we’ve lived here, we had never seen the bomb shelter. Until now.
