Exterior view, taken using a drone at sunset, showing North Lees Hall from the south-east with the windows illuminated, Hathersage, Outseats, Derbyshire, 2025. North Lees Hall is thought to have inspired Charlotte Bronte (1816-55) in the summer of 1845 when she was staying with her friend Ellen Nussey at the vicarage in Hathersage, providing the model for Mr Rochester's Thornfield Hall in her first and most famous novel Jane Eyre (1847).
