Background
History
The building was built circa 1870 as a pair of four-storey townhouses. Watts-Dunton took in Algernon Charles Swinburne until Swinburne's death in 1909. Watts-Dunton and Swinburne are seen in an image at the property in 1909 and a blue plaque erected by the London County Council on the house in 1926 reads "Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837–1909) poet, and his friend Theodore Watts-Dunton (1832–1914) poet, novelist, critic, lived and died here". Watts-Dunton lived on at The Pines for five years after his more famous companion's death in 1909 and then died there in 1914.
