From Haworth to Gawthorpe Hall
The Brontë Way is a trail of about 43 miles stretching from Birstall near Leeds in West Yorkshire, traversing the Pennines to Gawthorpe Hall at Padiham in Lancashire.
Brontë Ways takes us along this walk and visits the many places associated with the lives and literary works of the Brontë family.
This programme, part two, begins with a thorough look at Haworth exploring the many places involved in the lives of the Brontës, such as the Black Bull Inn, the Apothecary and the looming presence of the church graveyard.
We then journey up to Top Withens to experience the landscape and atmosphere which inspired Wuthering Heights, before passing Ponden Hall and crossing the Pennines to the beautiful village of Wycoller featured in Jane Eyre.
We venture deeper into Lancashire under the watchful eye of Pendle Hill, home to the notorious Pendle Witches.
The film ends in the splendid surroundings of Gawthorpe Hall, the former home of the Kay-Shuttleworth family, who Charlotte visited on several occasions.
Brontë Ways Part 1 is also available, tracing the family's life from Thornton to Haworth, looking at the various sites connected to the "Shirley" story.
