Meeting Mogwyn: A Glimpse into the Victorian Past

By Colin Edward Mason

Meeting Mogwyn is a literary essay and a response to a visit to Calke Abbey, the house that time forgot. It is full of rich description of the author's day, the people he meets, the stately home and its surroundings. It is an intimate and detailed sharing of warm Summer's day in Derbyshire and yet it is something more too. Colin Edward Mason was enjoying his unplanned day trip to an art exhibition at Calke Abbey when he experienced the inexplicable - voices from the past, and the name "Mrs Fitch". Questioning the tour guide posed more questions than it answered. Mrs Fitch, or Nanny Fitch was a real person, now long dead. The author is a sceptic and keeps his options open but even sceptics can experience the inexplicable and possibly the supernatural. Was this a Time Anomaly? Was it an example of "stone recording"? Was it no more than the babble of an overactive imagination creating a striking coincidence? Always supposing, that is, that you believe in coincidence Could it have been an experience of the supernatural - a genuine haunting with actual ghosts. It is left to the reader to decide whether this was a ghost.
