The famed Bronte sisters lived in the little village of Haworth, who were inspired by the surrounding moorland to write books that have become masterpieces of English literature. With its variety of curiosity and antique shops, alleyways, and cobblestone streets providing a great period ambiance, Haworth is a community that time almost forgot, all set against a framing backdrop of scenery well characterised in the novel Wuthering Heights as wild, harsh, and bleak. Nearby, the historic Keighley and Worth Valley Train, a genuine steam railway made famous by the film The Railway Children, offers a pleasant day out with a regular service to Oxenhope, an old village.
