This is the first museum in Britain dedicated to the life and achievements of a single politician. With no precedent to dictate what the public might expect, Casson Mann set out to create an experience that allows the visitor to leave feeling that they have physically met the man. Designed in 2005, this installation is a fusion of historic objects and 70 specially commissioned audio-visual exhibits. The 17-metre Lifeline Table is laid out with virtual manila folders for each year of Churchill’s life, containing 3,000 documents, photographs and film clips.
