Wuthering Heights Fact: Top Withens is popularly credited
as being Emily Bronte's setting for the Earnshaw moorland
farmstead. Whether or not this desolate ruin on the Pennine moors
above the village of Haworth is the genuine location of "Wuthering
Heights"hardly seems to matter to most visitors: the setting is
romantic enough to have appeared in several film versions and
paintings, and it is hard not to be impressed by the wildness of
the place. For more information see: Bronte Country.
Below is a photograph of the Moors, the setting of Wuthering
Heights.
