Copperfield Crescent, Higham
The name Copperfield Crescent and the fact it runs at its western end into Charles Dickens Avenue shows that you are in Dickens Country. Indeed Gads Hill, his final home in which he died, is just around the corner.

Act II, Scene II - The Road by Gadshill
This road was for centuries the Dover Road, and the pub is the 'Sir John Falstaff' - so called because Shakespeare chose Gadshill as the setting for the robbery scene in 'King Henry IV, Part I'. The inept robbers include Prince Hal and Sir John himself, along with various low-life companions.
By some curious twist, this is also where Charles Dickens spent much of his later life, as (from 1856) he owned the house - Gad's Hill Place - opposite the pub. It ceased to be a private residence in the 1920's, becoming a school.
