1974: CHURCHILL EXHIBITION at Blenheim Palace | Nationwide | BBC Archive
Winston Churchill was born at his ancestral home, Blenheim Palace, in November 1874.
To assist with its upkeep costs, the stately home of Blenheim was one of the first to open to access to the public in 1950.
A centenary on from Churchill's birth, the then Duke of Marlborough, John Spencer-Churchill, invited Christopher Rainbow to talk about the former Prime Minister and inspect a variety of items and keepsakes from his life that were now available for the public to peruse.
