Charles Dickens Museum

Dickens rented this Georgian terrace in Bloomsbury from 1837 to 1839, the only one of his London addresses still standing, and in it he finished The Pickwick Papers, wrote Oliver Twist and Nicholas Nickleby and began Barnaby Rudge. The study is shown with his desk, and the dining room is furnished to the period rather than left as bare fabric. Open Wednesday to Sunday, with lift access and an accessible WC.
