Charles Dickens and the Victorian Camden Crescent, Dover Seafront, Kent, UK
The Victorian Camden Crescent (a Listed Building) was built in 1840 and runs from the Indian Mutiny War Memorial in New Bridge (the buildings behind the tree on the left) to Wellesley Road (by the Gateway Flats, out-of-shot to the right).
The build date of 1840 is at the juncture of two architectual periods: Georgian architecture and Victorian architecture.
A "Blue Plaque" erected by the Dover Society states:
"In 1852 CHARLES DICKENS and his family lodged nearby in Camden Crescent while he wrote parts of Bleak House. The author Wilkie Collins was a regular visitor."

New Street (Turne-Againe Lane until c. 1785), Dover, Kent, UK.
An atmospheric photograph of John Allister passing the Golden Wall (he shouldn't cast a shadow) while walking westwards along New Street towards the York Street bypass at 10.30 am on Sunday, March 22nd, 2009.
The doorway in front of John used to be a side entrance to the Metropole Hotel (Metropole Bars; main entrance on Cannon Street, now JD Wetherspoon's The Eight Bells public house, or pub).
John and I both went to St Mary's Church of England Primary School in the late 1950s and early 1960s when it was located in Queen Street.

This building on the corner of Queen Street and Chapel Place was once the Ordnance Arms public house (until 1910, I think). I (John Latter) spent the first three years of my life here from 1951-1954. The glum look on my face in the photo was because I was given nothing to hold on to when first put on the rocking chair so I promptly fell off.
