The setting in The Speckled Band such as the building of grey was important because it symbolises the danger that lurks about them.Lichen-blotched stone, with a laid-back central portion and two curved wings like the claws of a crab. The simile which describes . Stoke Moran shows the danger that Holmes and Helen are in. The claws sound like they are dangerous and will trap anyone and make them suffer a terrible fate for those who approach them. It was a perfect day, with a bright sunshine and a few fleecy clouds in the heavens. The trees and wayside hedges were just throwing out their first green shoots, and there was full of the pleasant smell of the moist earth and this sinister quest upon which we were engaged. This pathetic fallacy shows the contrast mingled with where they are coming from which is calm and pleasant and Stoke Moran, which is portrayed as a sinister place full of danger and mystery. This setting is important as it also builds tension in the reader which makes them want to read on.
