HAWORTH, YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND
So much to see, do and taste!
Bronte Parsonage Museum
Visit where the Bronte wrote their classic novels and see the world’s largest collection of Brontë artifacts.
The Bronte Parsonage is where the Brontes grew up and created their famous novels. Now a popular visitor attraction with artifacts and annual exhibitions and events, much has been kept as it was during the Bronte period with many of their personal possessions on show.
The parsonage has a small pleasant garden at the front, but if a sunny day, do to a book or light lunch to the meadow field at the rear.
Keighley And Worth Valley Railway
Step back to a bygone age of industrial sights, sounds and smells of steam and other vintage trains at the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway.
Ride the steam and diesel trains of yesteryear of this 5 mile line, made famous by 1970 film, The Railway Children.
Stand on the bridge at Haworth station as a steam train gently leaves the station blasting from its funnel underneath. Hold on to your camera!
