Places behind Wuthering Heights
-
Haworth
West Yorkshire
Haworth's parsonage was the Brontë family home, where the sisters spent most of their lives and wrote their novels. The moorland above the village shaped their writing and is where Wuthering Heights takes place.

Top Withens
Haworth Moor
Top Withens is a popular walk from Haworth, but its own wall plaque says the farmhouse bore no resemblance to the invented house. Its lonely moorland setting, rather than its layout, is thought to have inspired Wuthering Heights.
