The first day of the Battle of the Somme had the greatest loss of life in British Army history - out of nearly 60,000 casualties, a third were fatalities.
As we mark the 110th anniversary of this offensive, this is an opportunity for visitors to explore the different perspectives of those who experienced the carnage first-hand, from regular soldiers to officers, from those who survived to those who were amongst the tragic loss of life in the bloodiest battle of the Great War.
Linked to this exhibition, there are family activities and opportunities to dress up in the uniform and kit of a soldier of the Somme.
