Golden Buildings, London, from Dickens David Copperfield (illustration)

"Scanned directly from Old and New London - Its History, its people and its places, published by Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co. 1878. This illustration depicts Golden Buildings (the passage leading to the Fox under the Hill), Strand West which featured in David Copperfield.The Fox under the Hill Tavern was probably the scene of the wedding-breakfast after the marriage of Wemmick and Miss Skiffins. The area around the Adelphi, Strand was described by Dickens as follows: I was fond of wandering about the Adelphi, because it was a mysterious place with those dark arches. I see myself emerging one evening from some of those arches in a little public -house close to the river, with an open space before it, where some coal-heavers were dancing; to look at them I sat down on a bench.'"
