School vision to become a reality

WORK to transform the childhood home of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle into a special school is set to begin within months after the project secured a £100,000 National Lottery grant.

The 18th-century Liberton Bank House will be a permanent home for Dunedin School, which is currently housed in a nearby Scout hall.

A GP practice will be built in the derelict gardens of the building next to the Cameron Toll Shopping Centre. The Sherlock Holmes creator lived in the house for four years during the 1860s, from the age of five. for more click here
