Thousands of cobbles

The stone setts on which the Brontës trod are being dug up, repaired and relaid. Thousands of cobbles on historic Haworth Main Street are being repaired by Bradford Council. The work, which began yesterday, is the final phase of a £600,000 project to preserve the character of the village, the former home of the Brontës and a major visitor attraction. The latest phase of the scheme will cover the length of Main Street between The Old White Lion Hotel and The Fleece pub and is expected to last until the summer. Last year new seats, direction posts and planters were installed in the village.  ain Street will be closed in short sections while the work is carried out.
Pedestrians will be allowed access at all times. The road will be reopened at weekends and no work will be carried out on bank holidays.
