  Hathersage, Peak District, Derbyshire
This is the heroine's introduction to Hathersage - or "˜Morton' as it is called in Charlotte Bronte's classic 19th century novel "˜Jane Eyre', and the sound that attracted Jane was the chiming of the church clock.
It was a chime that Charlotte Bronte knew well, for the 30 year-old Yorkshire lass from Haworth had stayed with her former school-friend Ellen Nussey at the Vicarage for three weeks in the summer of 1845, where Ellen's brother Henry was from 1845 to 1847 the vicar of St. Michael and All Angels Parish Church.
Hathersage boasts a superb outdoor swimming pool, open to the public during the summer months, and there are several good hostelries including the sixteenth century George Hotel with its Bronte connections, the cosy Hathersage Inn, with the inevitable Little John Inn a short distance away.
