School Haworth Charlotte Bronte

The photo above shows the Sunday school in Haworth, Yorkshire where writer Charlotte Bronte taught. This building is almost opposite the Old Parsonage in Haworth where the Bronte family lived in the 19th century.

IN 1832 AND RESTORED BY THE
CHURCH IN 1966 WITH HELP FROM
THE BRONTE SOCIETY.

  4. When I lived in York, some members of my Church and I used to go down to Haworth and use this building to tell people about how the Bronte’s used to teach Sunday school and also repeat the message of Jesus years later.
