The Yard Today
A French restaurant, bistro and tavern called The Bleeding Heart now occupies a number of the buildings in the courtyard. A gate at the south of the yard leads to Ely Place.
Greville Street links Bleeding Heart Yard to another notable street from Charles Dickens' novels; Saffron Hill, which was the home of Fagin in Oliver Twist.
