Did Sherlock Holmes really exist?

Holmes and Watson lived at 221b Baker Street between 1881-1904. The house is protected by the government due to its "special architectural and historical interest", while the 1st floor study overlooking Baker Street is still faithfully maintained for posterity as it was kept in Victorian Times.



Step back in time, and when you visit London, remember to visit the world s most famous address - 221b Baker Street - the official home of Sherlock Holmes.
Meanwhile do some research to discover if Sherlock Holmes really existed or if he was just fantasy. Man or myth?
