Charles Dickens Museum
Description
One of many homes occupied by Charles Dickens, this is now a fully restored museum devoted to his life.
Rooms are laid out as if the Dickens family are still living there and have just stepped out for a moment.
A recent extension into the neighbouring building allowed for a lot of heritage to also be put on display without spoiling the history of the original home.
