Another glorious Sunday morning read thank you Heather. I grew up in the south of Scotland with it's mysterious landscape and dark history - both past and recent. I definitely resonates that it shaped my belief in the world being a dark, gothic fairytale (my Dad firmly believes to this day that Tolkien must have found his Middle Earth in the Borders!) so I found this piece quite moving & emotional.

I love and relate to this immensely. I'm from South Manchester and now live at the edge of the Peak District in Macclesfield.

I think you should send the Brontë museum this piece. Or have you already messaged them?
