PROPERTY OVERVIEW
The property comprises a Grade II Listed Georgian building arranged over five floors including basement. Took’s Court is situated within the Chancery Lane Conservation Area. Named after Thomas Tooke of London Esquyre, Dickens House was constructed in 1720. No’s 14-15 Took’s Court are some of the finest examples of early Georgian properties, framed by giant Baroque Ionic pilasters and rubbed brick, and boasts its original flying staircase running from the ground to the second floor. There is a long association between Charles Dickens and 15 Took’s Court, which was re-named Cook’s Court (occupied by Mr. Snagsby) by Dickens in his novel Bleak House. Local tradition suggests Dickens lived in 15 Took’s Court during his time as a parliamentary reporter when he is believed to have concocted one Ebenezer Scrooge, based upon his neighbour. The property is located on the east side of Tooks Court, which is off Cursitor Street. Chancery Lane and Temple underground stations are within close proximity.
