Calling All Sherlock Holmes Fans:

Undershaw Preservation Trust Court Action

The UPT go to court on the 23rd of May to prevent Undershaw falling victim to development.

Undershaw, the Hindhead home of Arthur Conan Doyle, was the birthplace of Hound of the Baskervilles, amongst other stories.

In more positive news: the youngest Holmes society, the ‘London Monthly Meeting’ next convenes on Wednesday the 30th of May.

It's also referred to as ‘HMM’ (Holmes Monthly Meeting?); read about it here and deduce for yourself.

Or go to the Metropolitan Bar, above Baker Street Station, on the 30th and ask them to make up their minds. . .

Site Re-Vamp

Due to the growing number of pages I've decided to (i.e. had to!) re-structure the site. I've re-created the Day of Syn and the Syn Roster sections, which currently exist in parallel with the old pages, and added a Dymchurch section.

N.B. All future added pages will go to the new addresses.

If you have bookmarked or linked to any of the 'deeper' pages, please locate the new versions and update.

- a pleasant, industrious place by day, but the centre of illicit activities in the haunted Romney Marsh by night.
