Inside the dining room by the fireplace is where Charlotte, Emily, Anne and Branwell were born.

The nursemaids room is located off a small corridor near to the children's bedroom. The staircase leads down to the kitchen and scullery. Nancy and Sarah Garrs were the children's nursemaids while at Thornton. — bij Emilys-by-De-Luca-Boutique-The-Bront

These images are of when it was a museum under the ownership of Barbara some some years ago and we hope our more current approach and theme to the birthplace is just as sympathetic and complimentary to the building and it's heritage. Look forward to seeing you all at the opening, Mark & Michelle x
