Derby Telegraph recommends several 'Gorgeous walking trails to explore in the Peak District this autumn' such as:
Stanage Edge
Just north of Hathersage is Stanage Edge. A popular place for rock climbers and walkers, the edge offers breathtaking views of the Hope Valley.
The horizon is incredible and takes in the Dark Peaks moorland which looks absolutely gorgeous in the autumnal colours. As far as walking goes, there’s a nine-mile route you could tackle from Hathersage to Stanage Edge that passes the historic North Lees Hall - the inspiration for Mr Rochester's home in Jane Eyre. (Joseph Ash)
Continuing with the autumnal theme, Town and Country magazine lists '25 Best Classic Fall Books for a Cozy Autumn Read'  including
Jane Eyre (Penguin Classics)
Jane Eyre begins on a dreary November day—"There was no possibility of taking a walk that day..."—setting the tone for the gothic novel. Autumn remains a key backdrop throughout the novel, including when she travels to Thronfield Hall for the first time (her first morning there was "a fine autumn morning"). A definitive autumn classic. (Any Brontë novel, honestly, makes great fall reading.) (Emily Burack)
In The Telegraph, writer Amanda Craig celebrates the centenary of the creation of Lord Peter Wimsey by Dorothy L. Sayers.
No brooding Heathcliff or sulky Darcy, he is bubbling with jokes, and is energetic, fanciful, vulnerable, brave and rather fabulously camp. 
Finally, 'Elizabeth Gaskell’s Moving Visit To Haworth' on AnneBrontë.org.
