Farrars Buildings


Inner Temple. (EC4) Here Boswell had his chambers to be near Johnson. Charles Lamb lived at No. 4. "Two rooms on the third floor and five rooms above," he writes to Coleridge, "with an inner staircase to myself, and all new painted, etc., for £30 a year. The rooms are delicious; the best look backwards into Hare Court, where there is a pump always going; just now it is dry. Hare Court's trees come in at the window, so that it's like living in a garden." (Reference: Timbs's London and Westminster, vol. I, p. 198)
