Adapted as a museum and gift shop to celebrate Charles Dickens' association with Broadstairs. The house was once the home of Miss Mary Pearson on whom Dickens based much of the character of Miss Betsey Trotwood, in his novel David Copperfield.
Includes items owned by Charles Dickens including letters written from or about the town of Broadstairs, a Mahogany sideboard, a collection of prints by H. K. Browne.
Open daily throughout the summer season. Parties and school groups are welcome by arrangement with the Honorary Curator, Mrs Lee Ault.
