Wuthering Heights - Setting

Wuthering Heights begins in 1801 when the narrator begins to lodge at Thrushcross Grange. Thrushcross Grange is located someone on the moors of England; I'm not sure of the precise location. The physical setting seems very dreary and ominous.

So far, I am intrigued by the book. I must admit that this is not my first reading of the novel; I read it as a senior in high school. The vocabulary is still somewhat difficult, even now, but I know the book only gets better from here, so I will stick with it. :)
