The Dickens Inn is an original warehouse building near Tower Bridge, Tower of London and the Shard. As an original warehouse building, it`s thought to have housed tea or to have been owned by a local brewery. It certainly existed at the turn of the 18th century and may well have been born in the 1700`s. When Cedric Charles Dickens, grandson of the famous author Charles Dickens, formally opened the Inn in May 1976 he said My Great Grandfather would have loved this inn. This is surely true as the writer who can fairly be known as the world`s favourite story teller knew Thameside and East London intimately. His works are stocked with characters and scenes memorably linked with the area
