The real Wuthering Heights, 2016:back cover (Top Withins farm on Stanbury Moor, West Yorkshire, is internationally famous as the inspiration for Emily Brontë's "Wuthering Heights") page 9 (there is some confusion over the spelling of the name - is it Withins or Withens? Both spellings have occurred frequently in recent writings. Both authors of the present work have independently jettisoned their preferred spelling Withens in favour of Withins, largely because that is the Ordnance Survey spelling)
