We went to the Cabinet War Rooms yesterday (aka Churchill War Rooms) for a guided tour with our friend Mark who is a Blue Badge Guide. For those who didn’t know, Churchill loved a map and there are maps on the walls throughout the bunker, the Map Room is the centrepiece of the tour.
It’s not well lit in the CWR and all of the displays are behind glass, so the pics aren’t brilliant but they do offer a fascinating insight into the way large scale maps were used to provide a strategic overview of a war that raged across much of the globe.
