#58: Have a drink in a bar over 200 years old

The Grapes was established in 1583. Charles Dickens mentioned it in his book, “Our Mutual Friend.”

“A tavern of dropsical appearance… long settled down into a state of hale infirmity. It had outlasted many a sprucer public house, indeed the whole house impended over the water but seemed to have got into the condition of a faint-hearted diver, who has paused so long on the brink that he will never go in at all.”
