The Langham Place Circle is important to identity and belonging because it was a location for Victorian women to be able to go to support one another as well as challenge the idea that their sole purpose was to take care of the home and children, being wives and mothers. This place helped women be able to build their own sense of belonging within the Women's Suffrage Act, where they could speak out, share ideas, and fight for their rights.
This location also relates to Goblin Market because both the place and the location are able to show how women felt restricted in society but also how they found the strength through female relationships. The poem uses the sisters to be a form of protection and survival through temptation which Langham Place Circle also shows, but instead of through temptation its to get the ability to change their identity and be able to belong better in society.
