Drawings by Leonardo da Vinci on show at the National Library of Wales were previously stored there during World War II, researchers have found.

It was thought the 10 works had never been to the library in Aberystwyth before.

But officials discovered the drawings had been placed there for safety in a specially built secret cave of masterpieces.
