  "The wind I hear it sighing With Autumn's saddest sound -  Withered leaves as thick are lying As spring-flowers on the ground -  This dark night has won me To wander far away -  Old feelings gather fast upon me Like vultures on their prey - " - Emily Jane Brontë -  By The Bridgehouse Beck, Haworth Old yew tree, Haworth Central Park Haworth Church Graveyard Haworth Church Graveyard Church Street bottom, Haworth Keighley KWVR Station Cafe Church Lane top, Haworth John Brown's House, Church Lane, Haworth Brontë Parsonage Museum in the autumn mist

A Misty Autumn Walk Around Wycoller, Lancashire

  "Mr. Rochester, if ever I did a good deed in my life - if ever I thought a good thought - if ever I prayed a sincere and blameless prayer - if ever I wished a righteous wish - I am rewarded now. To be your wife is , for me, to be as happy as I can be on earth."  Charlotte Brontë, "Jane Eyre" The following photos I took on a beautifully atmospheric, ethereal walk around Wycoller, Brontë Country with my colleagues from the Brontë Parsonage Museum. The ruins of Wycoller Hall, Lancashire. The hall was the inspiration for Ferndean Manor in Charlotte Brontë's novel "Jane Eyre", Rochester's second home where he moves after his first home Thornfield Hall is burnt down, and where he is reunited with Jane.
