Dr. Johnson's House, located at 17 Gough Square in London, is a historic townhouse that once served as the residence of the esteemed writer and lexicographer, Samuel Johnson. Built in 1700, this four-story brick building is an exemplary representation of early 18th-century architecture. The house is most renowned for being the place where Johnson compiled his seminal work, "A Dictionary of the English Language," which was first published in 1755 and remained the preeminent English dictionary until the completion of the Oxford English Dictionary over a century later.

The house has been meticulously restored to reflect the period during which Johnson lived there, from 1748 to 1759. It features a collection of Johnsonian artifacts, including original manuscripts, personal belongings, and period furniture, offering visitors a tangible connection to the life and times of one of England's greatest literary figures. The rooms are arranged to provide insight into Johnson's daily life and the intellectual environment of 18th-century London.

Dr. Johnson's House is not only a museum but also a center for scholarly research and literary events. It hosts a variety of educational programs, lectures, and exhibitions that delve into the rich literary history of the era. The house is managed by a charitable trust, which ensures its preservation and accessibility to the public.

The building itself is a Grade I listed structure, signifying its exceptional historical and architectural importance. Nestled in a quiet courtyard off Fleet Street, Dr. Johnson's House offers a serene retreat from the bustling city, inviting visitors to step back in time and explore the legacy of a man whose contributions to English literature and lexicography continue to resonate today.
