On the Wall 18

Fact or fiction. I must visit the museum one day. I used to frequent the pub a few doors along called the Charles Dickens many years ago in the late 70’s. The pub is now a freight company. The shipping docks are very close by. The house can be seen here

Cool to think about visiting

Love that style of house. Would love to live in it! Great fun finding blue plaques, isn't it?

This chap did get around a lot!

[Carole Sandford]

Oh I didn’t know he was born in Pompey.

[Mags]

A nice slice of history!

I have walked past this place quite a few times.

I had no idea that Dickens was born in Portsmouth, it does look like a pretty row of houses and a shame about the surrounding developments.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

Well Google supports this claim

That must be really interesting. Charles Dickens has been one of my most, if not the most, loved writer in my life.

Imagine having this sign on the front of your house.
