A STAGE presentation of Emily Brontë’s novel Wuthering Heights in Haworth has been postponed.

The Friends of the Brontës Church planned to host Jorvik Theatre’s production on Saturday, July 30 at Haworth Parish Church.

But the group have now issued a statement saying that with “deep regret” they had to delay the presentation.

They added: “This is due to the over-running of building works within the church. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.”

The play, intended to celebrate the church’s reopening, was due to feature local actor Geraldine (Gerry) Hill in the major role of the Narrator.
