have it here in my museumˮ said Sherlock Holmes

in the adventure of the Blue Carbuncle.

The opening of the Sherlock Holmes Museum to the

public on 27 March 1990 was an event which should have

happened several decades ago. 221 b Baker Street is, after

all, the world's most famous address because of its long

association with the great detective.

Thousands of people all over the world write to Sherlock

Holmes, they form clubs and societies in his honour, and

they celebrate his anniversaries. Now it is also possible to

see where and how he lived in Victorian times! The

famous study which Holmes and his friend Dr Watson

shared for almost 25 years is on the first floor overlooking

Baker Street, but before entering the house, ask yourself

which of these categories of visitors you would place

yourself in:

a) You 've heard about Sherlock Holmes and you've seen

one or two films about his exploits - probably the Hound

of the Baskervilles - yet you know very little about the

great detective himself. You are probably visiting out of

curiosity.

b) You know a great deal about Sherlock Holmes! You 've

read most of the stories, you've seen all his films on TV

and you are an admirer of the famous detective. You'd like

to visit his rooms to see if they are quite as you imagined.

c) You are an expert - an absolute authority on

Sherlockiana! You can discuss and debate with the best of

them, having read and re-read all sixty of the original

stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and those

written by others- you may have even written one

yourself!

Whatever category you belong to, you are sure to find a

visit to the museum a memorable experience. You may

take photographs wherever you wish (the maid will be

pleased to assist) you are ready to leave, you may find

yourself wishing that you could hail a horse- drawn

hansom cab to take you home!

Guidance notes.

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson lived at 221 b Baker

Street from about 1881-1904. Apartment 221b was on the

first floor of a lodging house, the landlady of which was a

Mrs. Hudson. There were 17 steps from the ground floor

hallway to the first floor study which Holmes and Watson

shared. Holmes' bedroom was at the rear, adjoining the

study.

Visitors will recognise scores of familiar objects and

paraphernalia mentioned in the stories.

Doctor Watson's bedroom was on the second floor next to

Mrs. Hudson's room and it overlooked an open yard at the

rear of the house. These rooms are used today as exhibit

rooms, where centre stage is taken by a magnificant

bronze bust of Mr Holmes.

The Museum's large and attractive souvenir shop is

located on the ground floor.

The house was built in 1815 and is listed Grade 2 of

special architectural and historical interest by Her

Majesty's Government.
