This is a guide to notable locations in the life of Arthur Conan Doyle and his famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. It chronicles the life of each by guiding the reader through Scotland and England, with entries arranged by county or unitary authority. Each entry includes the address, a description of the site's history and significance to Conan Doyle or Holmes, often an accompanying photograph and frequently a quotation from Conan Doyle.

Allan Foster is a writer and tour operator in Edinburgh. His famous “Old Town Literary Pub Crawl” is enjoyed by visitors from all over the world. He lives in the Scottish Border country with his wife in a cottage by the banks of the River Tweed and is the author of several books.
