We went for a walk in Bronte Country today. First we drove to the car park at Haworth, which is known as Bronte village.
A lot of the signs are translated to Japanese, as there are a lot of tourists who come here from there.
First we walked across the moors to the trig point at Penistone Hill.
Then we carried on as far as Bronte Falls. Shirley sat in the Bronte Chair!
We then walked up to the ruined house at Top Withens, rumoured to be the inspiration for Wuthering Heights.
Then we went a bit further up to stop for lunch at some rocks.
We then walked back down past Penistone Crag to Ponden Reservoir.
We reached the road and walked to the Wuthering Heights Inn at Stanbury where we stopped for a pint.
Back at Haworth we had a walk round the old streets and another drink at the Kings Arms.
We drove back to the house in Hebden Bridge. We all went out for pre-dinner drinks at Calan's Micropub. Later we went out to a Thai restaurant, the Rim Nam Thai, where we had a selection of dishes, all were very good.
