Filming is to take place on Queen Street on Monday 2nd February with the location expected to be transformed into a Victorian setting.
Earlier this week, filming took place in the cellars of the Colston Hall in Bristol.
Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman are to return to Sherlock as Sherlock Holmes and John Watson for a fourth series of the show, based on the books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
The current filming is for the show’s Christmas special, which will be aired in December before more episodes in 2016.
During an interview with the Radio Times last November, co-writer Mark Gatiss said that viewers should: “Expect tragedy as well as adventure, that’s just how it goes.
“Just because it’s in the stories, doesn’t mean it’ll happen in the series.
“There’s an awful lots of changes and an awful lot of places to go and things to do.”
