A rare and precious advert for 'The Misses Bronte's Establishment', the school within Haworth Parsonage that Charlotte Bronte intended to start alongside sisters Anne and Emily. No pupils applied.

BRONTE BOOK FOUND!

 

Nick Holland 

This tiny Book Of Rhymes, written by Charlotte Bronte aged 13, had been thought lost since 1916. "Sold by nobody" wrote Charlotte - it sold for $520 in 1916 and is now up for auction with an estimate of 1.25 million!

Charlotte Bronte's christening bonnet.

This very special item goes on display at the Bronte Parsonage Museum next month for the very first time - from 1816, it's Charlotte Bronte's christening bonnet!
