About

Join us for a cosy Halloween makers market at the historic Brontë Old School Room. With 20 brilliant stalls showcasing Yorkshire makers, it’s the perfect chance to discover and support local independents. Consider supporting 20 Indies instead of the big giants, and choose artists, designers, crafters & makers from across Yorkshire this October. Just follow the cobbles up Main Street, past the church steps, and find us opposite the Brontë Parsonage Museum.
