Reply to comment by zantosh in TIL while writing "A Christmas Carol," Charles Dickens was "taking night-time walks of 15 to 20 miles (24 to 32 km) around London." to build out the story in his head. by SuperMcG
Average walking pace is ~3-4mph, so that’s about 5 hours. The sun sets around 6 in the winter, so he’s home by 11. That seems reasonable to me.
