Sherlock Holmes walk

Since my next exam isn't until next week, I decided to do a little sightseeing and took a Sherlock Holmes walk. This one focused on place mentioned in the various stories about Holmes and other sites related to Arthur Conan Doyle. We didn't go to Baker Street as that is near Regent's Park and this walk took place in the West End.

A pub named after Sherlock Holmes
Cleopatra's Needle, given (or stolen by the British, depending on the source) in honor of the defeat of Napoleon
The former Charing Cross Hospital, the major hospital in the West End during the Victorian era.
The Victorian reproduction of the Charing Cross in honor of Queen Eleanor, wife of Edward I. (Original was dismantled by Oliver Cromwell, who was a Puritan)
The Duke of York Theater, Charlie Chaplin had his first professional performance here
The house where Benjamin Franklin lived while in London
A replica of the original Queen Mary ocean liner, a restaurant and pub now
