Let me in: The Brontes in Bricks and Mortar

Join Bronte experts, Ann Dinsdale & Sharon Wright as they share their UK travels in search of the buildings important to the Bronte family.

Between wild walks, Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte spent most of their lives indoors, their imaginations firing behind firmly-closed doors. Join two expert writers on a very personal journey around Britain and Ireland, enjoying privileged access to private houses that shaped and inspired the Bronte sisters and their writing. Echoing Cathy's ghost in Wuthering Heights, Ann and Sharon ask to be let in - and invite you on an eye-opening odyssey that combines the surprising Bronte history of key houses with their sometimes glorious, sometimes heartbreaking, always fascinating afterlives.

Join Ann and Sharon will talk about the historic buildings where the extraordinary Bronte story unfolded. Discover the untold secrets of the world-famous Bronte Parsonage, where they wrote their novels, and the nearby birthplace of their early childhoods. Learn of the ghosts and legends of the real Wuthering Heights, the legacy of Ulster and Cornwall in the sisters' DNA, the restoration of the real Lowood School in Jane Eyre - and follow a Bronte pub crawl around the inns and taverns of Victorian England frequented by wayward brother Branwell.

For all Bronte fans this an evening not to be missed.
