On to the Moors from Penistone Hill car park


The track drops into the valley to Bronte Bridge


Bronte Bridge and a procession of People heading for Top Withens, the inspiration behind Wuthering Heights


The Clapper Bridge in a slightly quieter moment



The Bronte Falls, probably more spectactular after heavy rain, my route took me up the side of the waterfall


Looking down to the bridge from the waterfall as another procession of people arrive




Off across the moors on a more rugged route to Top Withens






My route meets the Pennine Way and the sign indicates that many Japanese visitors pass this way


inside the ruin of Top Withens


The ruin of Top Withens


And accompanying sign

Heading baxk towards Penistone Hill and overlooking Lower Laithe Reservoir


on to Penistone Hill
