At the start of Wuthering heights when the man who's renting the grange goes in he see's it as a rather depressing house with a rather unfriendly atmosphere. On the second visit he see's it more of a house full of very strange people, who he later on finds out all have had very strange and rather depressing life stories all of the effected by the death of Cathy Earnshaw. The heights is supposed to always hold all the passion of the events that took place there in the past. This is sensed by the Narrator at the start even though he does not yet know the story of the heights. The Heights are where Cathy always belonged and always knew she belonged. The grange is the rather convetional house in which she ended up living and dieing in. Cathy loved the Heights because she was very nostalgic about her childhood that she had lost after her first stay at the grange when she was o ly twelve. In losing her childhood she lost Heatcliff as a companion and they fell in love even though they carried opn as if they were companions and Cathy would not admit her love for Heathcliff until she was already engaged to Edgar, this resulting in tradgedy.
