The London and Lancashire Life Building was built in 1898 by the architect Edward Maxwell for the London and Lancashire Life Association of Scotland.[1][2][3] The Beaux-Arts structure was later used as the head office for Lord Beaverbrook, the New Brunswick-born magnate and later Minister of Supply under Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill.
