However, the biggest surprise for the team came from Ann Bromley, from Cleethorpes, who took along what she believed to be a collection of African tribal art.

The items were valued on the day at £200-£400 and sent to auction in Lincoln with a reserve price of £150.

However, they sold for an astonishing £30,000.

It turned out the collection stored in the wardrobe was Aboriginal and contained a rare Broad Shield, bought by the Sydney Museum of Primitive Art and since returned to Australia.
