No one who has studied the phenomenon would disagree when I say that this worldwide fascination admiration and need for Sherlock will only continue to grow and grow and grow. A Sherlock Holmes and Conan Doyle Museum in Portsmouth would be wonderful for the city and surrounding area, and wonderful for the legions of fans around the globe whom it will attract.

Daniel Curtis, partner at Blake Morgan said: ‘The closure of Debenhams is going to be felt very keenly in Portsmouth and is a real blow for the city centre after such a difficult year for retail.
‘Unfortunately however, with government support for businesses phasing out, it s unlikely to be the last big insolvency we ll see on high streets.

With the right approach, city centres can become more flexible, interesting, mixed-use environments where local businesses or start-ups can set up shop.
