Ever spotted Sherlock’s plaque near Baker Street?
Dame Sheila Sherlock lived for the last 30 years of her life on York Terrace East one of those stuccoed Nash terraces that few people ever wander down, south of Regent’s Park.
Her home was a five minute walk away from that of her fictional namesake at 221b Baker Street. I bet she got sick of the jokes.
Dame Sheila’s life was a remarkable one. One of the world’s leading liver specialists, you only have to look at her postnominals Dame Sheila Patricia Violet Sherlock DBE, FRCP FRCPE FRS HFRSE FMGA FCRGA to get an idea of how distinguished a career she enjoyed.
