Man renovating Bold Street shop stumbled on 'greatest discovery' he thought was 'rat hole'

Back in 2001, businessman Jeff Pearce was in the process of renovating his fashion store, Jeffs, on Bold Street when he stumbled on an amazing discovery. Jeff had started out selling womens' clothes from a stall at Paddy's Market on Great Homer Street with his wife, Gina.
