The Brontës' local pharmacy

The Old Apothecary, at the top of the steep High Street in Haworth, Yorkshire, has been restored to resemble its appearance when the famous Brontë sisters and their wayward brother lived in the village. The shop now does a good trade selling perfumery, lotions and other items to the tourists who flock there. I have stayed in the guest house on two of my visits to Yorkshire.
