Your help is needed!

The Undershaw Preservation Trust is vigourously working toward saving Undershaw from development and preserving it as Conan Doyle's home for future generations of Doyleans, Holmesians/Sherlockians, and literary fans of all kinds. 

Once the home is saved from development there will be plans for its future use, but our focus right now must be to preserve it. Undershaw is under serious threat and there is no time to waste. There is a Judicial Review on 23rd May 2012 which may determine what our next steps will be.

Go to "A Brief History of Undershaw" on this website to find out what has happened to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's former home, then visit our other pages for further information.

Please join us and help us to SAVE UNDERSHAW!

Saving Undershaw would honour the work and memory of this literary giant, whose creation of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson has brought much pleasure to so many for over 100 years.

There are hundreds of Sherlock Holmes societies all around the world, and there are even more fans of the Great Detective who have both enjoyed the original stories as well as other fiction and nonfiction works based on Holmes and Watson. There are the BBC "Sherlock" series as well as the "Sherlock Holmes" films starring Robert Downey, Jnr. and Jude Law.

Won't you join us and help to save Undershaw for future generations of Sherlock Holmes fans?
