When Dickens was a child, he often admired a house called Gad's Hill Place, on the road between Gravesend and Rochester. His father told him that if he worked very hard as a man, he might be able to live there. In 1856, Dickens bought the house for 1,790 GBP and lived there for the last ten years of his life, dying in 1870.
