It was a weekend of two halves. Saturday was dull and cloudy and best glossed over because Sunday was absolutely brilliant with sunshine all day. It was easily our warmest day of the year with the temperature reaching a very pleasant 18.6°C.
We’d planned a visit to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway the preserved railway line in Bronte country and where the 1970 film The Railway Children was made.
One of the stations along the line is Haworth, home to the famous Bronte sisters. We walked from the station through the park to the main street on our way to the Bronte museum.
We found a little cafe for some lunch before finding the Bronte Parsonage Museum.
We didn't have time to look around the museum but after taking few photos we head back to the railway station and to catch a train to explore more of the railway.

I love Haworth, it's one of my favourite places and we visit quite often, but we've never been inside the museum yet. The Apothecary is my favourite shop, it sells such gorgeous smellies, I can never resist buying something.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't look around the shops. Not many people seemed to be actually going into the museum. Perhaps the £7.50 admission charge puts people off.
DeleteFantastic photos, it looks like such a lovely place to explore. I'm guessing you could have spent much longer there. So glad the weather was beautiful for you as well.
ReplyDeleteIt probable depends if you like looking around olde worlde shops. If that's your thing then you have plenty to go at. It's not really our thing though.
DeleteWonderfully nostalgic :} Looks like you had good weather for your day out.
ReplyDeleteThe weather was great. I haven't got used to it not raining every day yet.
