Twists and Turns: Explore the places that inspired Oliver Twist

Walk in the footsteps of Charles Dickens on this tour exploring the places, people and events that inspired the author to write Oliver Twist.  Along the way you’ll visit the area long associated with political protest where Oliver is accused of robbing Mr Brownlow as he browses at a bookstall, walk the streets which once housed some of the worst slums in London and see where Dickens set Fagin’s den of thieves. The walk begins at the Charles Dickens Museum and ends in West Smithfield.
