A collection of assorted garden hand tools and maintenance equipment alongside an aluminium folding step ladder. The ladder is constructed from aluminium with three rungs leading to a top platform and features black plastic or rubber feet; a manufacturer’s label is present on the side rail, though the text is not legible. The assortment of tools includes a large soft-bristle broom with a green synthetic head and a black handle bearing a yellow adhesive label reading ‘STANLEY’ in capital letters. A second tool handle in black also features a yellow ‘STANLEY’ label. The lot further comprises a garden shovel with a green metal shaft and a black D-handle, bearing a pink and white adhesive label reading ‘Spear & Jackson’ and ‘Cattell’. Also included are a pair of long-handled loppers with silver-tone metal arms and red plastic grips, a pair of wooden-handled hedge shears with metal blades, a smaller handheld brush with a blue plastic base, a long wooden pole, and a thin blue pole.
