A man digging his garden in Co Kildare this week got a little more than he bargained for.
He uncovered a bomb which appeared to be about 18 pounds in weight and of English origin.
The Army Bomb Disposal unit were called to Kildare town to deal with the incident on Wednesday afternoon.
This man, who lives in the Blackmiller area, found the bomb while digging his garden at 3.30pm.
