Picture of the door into 221B Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes’ house

221B Baker Street is the London address of the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes, created by author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. According to Wikipedia, in the United Kingdom, postal addresses with a number followed by a letter may indicate a separate address within a larger, often residential building. In the late 19th century, Baker Street was a high-class residential district, and Holmes’ apartment would probably have been part of a Georgian terrace.

Terence and I visited 221A Baker Street during a quick work visit to London in 2018. These are pictures of a few doors inside the house.
