I went to visit Gaskells house number 82 Plymouth Grove and discovered that it is being renovated so was unable to look inside however did some sketches and took some photos of the outside. I was disappointed by the fact that I would not be able to see where Gaskell worked and got a lot of her inspiration from while writing her novels. It has obviously changed a lot since then. It has a main road right in front of it and is a bit out of place contrasting with the modern buildings around it. However was not a journey wasted as I experiment with the drawing with different media and edited them in Photoshop experimenting with the knowledge i had learnt in the digital workshop.
