There is a town in South Yorks called Penistone, so you can expect to see road signs for it, and you do. But this is an old milestone (200 years I'd guess) and presumably the person who carved it was either living in a more innocent time, or had a wicked sense of humour.

Anne Bronte's grave in St Mary's churchyard in Scarborough UK. Photograph by me in 1965.
Maintained by a local society, the inscription can be easily read. Charlotte Bronte complained that Anne's age was recorded wrongly on the headstone. She was 29 at the time of her death, not 28 as shown.

This looks like my idea of a prison yard, but it isn't. It's the view from a window at the back of the National Portrait Gallery in London. Taken by me, 1966/67.

This 1963 cover for Wuthering Heights, drawn by Paul Hogarth, is just fantastic. I never tire of looking at it. Catherine and Heathcliff together on a raw Pennine day. It's all there.
