Haworth Parsonage, on the windswept Yorkshire moors, was home to the extraordinary Brontë sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne. It has been a place of literary pilgrimage since it opened as a museum in 1928.
Among those pilgrims beating a path to the Parsonage’s door have been other writers come to pay their respects to the Brontës, including – though separated by 52 years – Virginia Woolf in the winter of 1904, and Sylvia Plath in the autumn of 1956.
Here we see them altogether in time-slip mode with the house as it was at the time of the Brontës, before later architectural additions.
