Roald Dahl's hut

This small little hut in Buckinghamshire is where Roald Dahl wrote many of his famous stories, including Matilda and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

His typical day started at 9:30am when he'd go through his fanmail and then he'd write from about 10:30am to midday. After lunch and an afternoon read, he'd do a couple more hours' writing from around 4pm.
