A STRANGE collection of items accumulated by a museum has gone on display to the public, including one of H G Wells’ teeth.

Bromley Museum’s Collecting Bromley's Treasure exhibition shows off the objects that have been acquired by the museum in Church Hill, Orpington, over the last five years.

Items on display include a Siouxsie and the Banshees poster from 1979 and a tooth from Bromley-born author H G Wells.

Curator Marie-Louise Kerr said: “We’re trying to get our wonderful collection out across the borough.

“There is a lot of people who don’t know there is a museum in Orpington still collecting donations.”

The exhibition will be at Bromley’s central library until next Wednesday (November 25).
