Brontë Birthplace

The literary sisters and their brother Branwell were all born in the house, and the family lived there until moving to Haworth in 1820 when Patrick was appointed curate there.

[6][5]: 7  Brontë Birthplace Limited was set up as a Community Benefit Society in June 2023, independent of TACA, and produced a 7-year business plan in October 2023.

[8] Another patron of the project was Duncan McCargo, a professor of global affairs and English at Nanyang Technological University, whose father's family grew up in Bradford.

[8] The plan is to operate a cafe / small restaurant / events space on the ground floor and to generate income by renting four upstairs bedrooms, decorated in the style of the Brontës' time in the house, as holiday lets or to visiting scholars.

[5]: 6  Brontë Birthplace Limited completed their purchase of the property at the end of March 2024, and planned to begin extensive renovations as soon as possible.
