Draft of 'The Cock Lane Ghost' Part 1
This image is for a story called 'The Cock Lane Ghost'.Its quite a complex story of the supernatural, fraud and 18th century London Life.
The decoration in this image is inspired by a decorative piece of early 18th century wood carving.

Continuation Of Research For Walk
After researching various historical events and fictional stories that occurred in Holborn I decided to map the locations of these tales. Many of the buildings that these stories took place in are gone so just to see where they happened is useful.
The map is from a 1930's London Guide book published by Ward Lock and Co.

Walk, preliminary research
This project is about taking one area of central London and through independent personal research trying to develop a slant on an area. I have chosen Holborn as its a place that feels quite modern especially as most of it was carved up to make the one of the longest straight roads in London, Kingsway. The truth is very different and I've started by making a model of one of the oldest surviving buildings from 1557.
