Wuthering Heights
Healaugh Crag
The gritstone ridge above Healaugh in Swaledale is where Cathy waits for Heathcliff, looking down over the film's Wuthering Heights.
Old Gang Smelting Mill
The ruined lead-smelting mill on the moor below Healaugh Crag stands in for the estate's weathered, wind-scoured outbuildings.
Swaledale
The drystone-walled valley around Low Row gives the film its brooding, timeless Yorkshire, all stone barns, sheep pasture and open sky.
