How we found it
After a walk back through the house, down the stairs and out into the garden, through an old padlocked door and underneath the heating pipes, all the way the manager explaining that the piece he had in mind was probably no good as it had been left down here for about 40 years he came to the dustiest and darkest part of the basement and in the corner, leaning up against the wall was Sir Winston Churchill’s personal sun lounger. After a little persuasion and agreeing that we would be supervised at all times with such a valuable piece it was agreed that we could use it on the show.
Sir Winston was photographed in this chair but the copyright holders wanted so much money for us to use it this just wasn’t possible for us to show it to you but what a treat to get it out in the sun one more time. They tell us they're thinking of having it restored and placed in the garden for all to see, it would be great to think we played a hand in revealing this piece of history and getting it back on view for all to enjoy.
