Haworth & Oxenhope

About

Haworth is a village set on the steep slopes of the Pennines, its stone-built main street climbing towards the surrounding moorland. The area is closely associated with the literary legacy of the Brontë family, with the parsonage where they lived now serving as a museum. The landscape is defined by heather-covered hills and weathered gritstone outcrops, with walking paths leading directly from the village into this open countryside.

To the east lies Oxenhope, a more dispersed settlement centred around its former railway station, which is now the terminus for the preserved Keighley and Worth Valley steam railway. The area retains a strong industrial heritage, with several converted mills and the presence of moorland reservoirs that supplied the region's mills. The sound of steam trains travelling through the valley is a distinctive feature of the local atmosphere.
