Chestnut Hollow

As the story goes, Eleanor Bedley was a young student in London when she decided to take a stroll through Greenwich Park, where she saw a man dressed in old clothes, staring at everything with amazement and fear. That was Charles Wilmington, owner of the Wilton House, named after Charles' great-grandfather's nickname. Wilton House was not in London; it was a few kilometres north, in Northamptonshire, near a small town called Ashby.

Charles alleged that he leaned against the tree when, suddenly, he fell through a hollow and ended up in London. He alleged that he was from the late 1700s and that he was very well off. The two fell in love, but they did not marry. They went on to have four children, and then Charles left because his father was dying. He left and never returned.

Now, Freya Bedley got news that her father has died and left everything he owned to her, including the vague future of his youngest three daughters that the Bedley family didn't even know existed.
