Like everywhere else in the UK, Haworth is on lock-down due to Corona-virus and the place is just about deserted.
People are taking the spread of this virus seriously at least and I've seen a lot of common sense in social distancing over the last few days.
Taking my daily walk, I took a few photographs of a most unusual Haworth today, a ghostly silent village, something that is alien to those who live here. There’s always visitors, rain, hail or sunshine! People come to see the home of the Bronte's, no matter what the season.
It’s an unsettling time for everyone and a very worrying time for some. However, the natural world continues just as it always does – the squirrels are foraging, birds are doing their courting, the grass is green and there’s an abundance of yellow and purple as the spring flowers brighten the whole area. The village is as beautiful and unique as ever.
