Chesterton loved Fleet Street. Stories were told for years about his large frame tottering down the street and about him sitting in the pubs, composing his timeless columns.

> For over 300 years, London's Fleet Street was the heart of British journalism, home to many of the country's leading newspapers – and the pubs that fueled their employees. On Wednesday, however, the industry saluted the end of an era at a ceremony marking the departure of Reuters from its Fleet Street headquarters.

> The exodus is the final knell for an era when booze-fueled journalists in the male-dominated publishing world would swap yarns with sources and competitors in the pubs.
