Thanks, Kate, and credit as ever to Andy Arthur’s great work. We’ll be pleased to set the record straight. Your point about AI is well made.

The Enquirer is a great institution and I'm a happy subscriber. But please please please don't propagate the hoary old fib that Conan Doyle had anything to do with the Salisbury Arms. I recommend Andy Arthur's Threadinburgh blog here: https://threadinburgh.scot/2025/06/27/the-thread-about-belleville-house-and-how-the-famous-literary-association-that-never-was/

It's also a salutary tale about how AI is slowly poisoning our sense of historical fact.
