Conan Doyle’s Home Saved From Redevelopment
House where Sherlock Holmes creator wrote 13 stories will remain a single building after high court ruling
Sherlock Holmes fans are celebrating the foiling of an attempt to convert the Victorian house of the great detective’s creator into eight separate homes.
Undershaw is a Grade II listed building at Hindhead Crossing near Haslemere in Surrey. During the decade he lived there from 1897, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote 13 Holmes stories, including The Hound of the Baskervilles. The building was later turned into a hotel, and has lain empty and dilapidated since 2005.
In 2010, Waverley borough council decided to allow the owner, Fossway Ltd, to divide up the property. Campaigners trying to save the house as a single entity launched a judicial review, and have now won their case at the high court in London. Mr Justice Cranston said legal flaws meant that the council’s decisions to grant planning permission and listed building consent must be quashed.
Lawyers representing John Gibson, a Conan Doyle scholar and co-founder of the Undershaw Preservation Trust, turned to one of Holmes’s favourite words in lambasting the “elementary” errors of the council in its consideration of the plans.
Hailing victory in “a long and difficult battle” to save Undershaw, Gibson said: “This is a place which is steeped in history and should be treated with reverence. Conan Doyle’s life and works are a fundamental part of British culture and arguably their stock has never been higher. We have been absolutely delighted to see enthusiasts from across the world get in touch and pledge their support to our efforts.

In the next two days i will have reached two of the biggest life markers of a person my age. I’ll be eighteen and i will have graduated high school. I cannot believe it. To be eighteen is what i’ve been waiting for and not because i can do as i please but becasue now i have the freedom to make my own choices without some parent bickering at me. There is nothing in this world that can stop me from the life i dream of. Nothing will keep me from living and being happy. I don’t want to have a six figure income or a huge house, i want love, a family, and memories that i can be nostalgic with. I am an adventurer. I have and old soul and now i have the freedom to live. And i certainly cannot wait.

“At poolside Marilyn took off her blue bathrobe, hiding her body as she slid into the water. A few moments later, when she raised herself from the water, I could see that her panties were gone. She’d done it! And she was having a lot of fun.”
