Geocache Description:


During her life Charlotte Bronte wrote many poems under her pseudonym Currer Bell, one of which is listed below.
It is said she wandered the area of this cache to gather her thoughts and write this poem.

Speak of the North
By Charlotte Brontë

Speak of the North! A lonely moor
Silent and dark and trackless swells,
The waves of some wild streamlet pour
Hurriedly through its ferny dells.

Profoundly still the twilight air,
Lifeless the landscape; so we deem
Till like a phantom gliding near
A stag bends down to drink the stream

And far away a mountain zone,
A cold, white waste of snow-drifts lies,
And one star, large and soft and lone,
Silently lights the unclouded skies.

The cache is on the Pennine Way and has been placed to link Walshaw Dean caches and Bronte caches.
It a small loc-top box.

Good luck.
