Monk’s Piece stands at the summit of land that rises gently up for some four hundred feet.... across this fertile, and sheltered , part of the country. But at our backs.... Rough scrub and heathland, a patch of wildness... Set on a rise above a sweeping view down over the whole river valley...

  3. Recap • Arthur attended the funeral of Mrs Drablow • He saw the Woman in Black • Mr Jerome ‘stopped dead’ • Arthur went to the hotel to have lunch • He is now waiting for Keckwick to collect him to take him to Eel Marsh House
