Ice-berg that sunk the Titanic fetches £21,000 at auction

The sepia snap went under the hammer at alongside items rescued from the wreckage of the iconic ship

A history fan shelled out a cool £21,000 for a photograph of the iceberg which sunk the RMS Titanic at an auction in Wiltshire.

The sepia snap went under the hammer at alongside items rescued from the wreckage of the iconic ship, which was on route to New York from Southampton in 1912 when disaster struck.

A Spillers and Bakers Pilot cracker from a lifeboat survival kit was snapped up for £15,000 by a Greek collector.

Now that really takes the biscuit.
