Haworth Main Street

This is Haworth Main Street, a very steep cobbled street not accessible by car. It's an easy walk downwards but you'll be breathless if you walk all the way up to the top! The Bronte Museum sits next to the graveyard and visitors can see where the Bronte sisters wrote in pencil in little notebooks at what was The Rectory. The Black Bull Hotel is supposedly haunted by boozy Branwell and it is very unlucky to sit on his triangular chair (which is roped off from the public) as he might still be sitting there! A wide variety of shops line both sides of the street. One has a Victorian interior and sells long-forgotten housewares (Fairy and Sunlight Soaps etc.) and 4711 fragrances along with Lily of the Valley (whoever she may be?), toileteries, 'smellies' by the crate and is a treasure trove of yesterday's memories. Wuthering Heights was based on a now-ruined building high on Haworth Moors which is sign-posted for Bronte fans to explore. And, best of all, steam trains travel up the Worth Valley to Haworth and beyond through lovely scenery.
