Steeped in history, and booming with sightseers during the
tourist season, Haworth is perhaps best known for it's connections
with the Bronte family. Beautifully preserved, the original
Haworth parsonage is now an excellent museum for Brontë
fans. Nearby is Top Withins Farm, the inspiration for Wuthering
Heights.
The outstanding Brontë Society website, at http://www.bronte.info/
has tons of information on the parsonage, the museum, and
the Brontës in general.
