Thanks to Google Earth we have got one more chance of virtually travelling to Haworth (or wherever!). But this is no ordinary journey. This is flying over everything and getting a very different view from what we are used to seeing.

On the picture on the right you can see the Parsonage. See all those tiny dots? Yes, they are nothing but tombstones. And two of those trees - those closer to the front of the Parsonage - were planted by Charlotte Brontë and her husband Arthur Bell Nicholls when they got married :)

Then, on the left, you can see Top Withins, up on the moors - the supposed location for Wuthering Heights. Looks like a plan for it, doesn't it? And all that greenery...

Such a great software! Go on, try it! What about Anne's grave in Scarborough? Or the Brontë Falls? Or... well, anywhere, basically.
