Haddon Hall has been used three times, not two, to depict Thornfield, so changing descriptor to "multiple". Also line-breaking final paragraph for clarity. |

Line 8:
It is suggested {{By whom|date=October 2010}} that Brontë based Thornfield on [[Haddon Hall]], near [[Bakewell]], [[Derbyshire]], although the evidence for this is unclear and is doubtful, perhaps based on the BBC editor's decision to use it in filming. Haddon Hall has, however been used to depict Thornfield on multiple occasions: in 1996 for [[Franco Zeffirelli]]'s [[Jane Eyre (1996 film)|Jane Eyre]], in 2006 for the [[BBC]] [[Jane Eyre (2006 miniseries)|mini series]] directed by Susanna White, and the 2011 [[Jane Eyre (2011 film)|feature]] starring [[Mia Wasikowska]] and [[Michael Fassbender]] directed by [[Cary Fukunaga]].
Another theory is that North Lees Hall in [[Hathersage]] is in fact the inspiration for Thornfield, particularly given that "Morton" in the novel is believed {{By whom|date=October 2010}} to be based on Hathersage and Bronte's stay in the area prior to writing the novel.
