Lady Charlotte Abberton is a self-styling spinster and the mistress of Lexden Park for her brother, Leo, Earl of Mersea. She is caustic, sardonic, and appears to have little interest in being liked or playing by society's rules. Perhaps strangely, she is a great favourite with her niece Clare for whom she plays a maternal role. In private, she enjoys playing the pianoforte and fencing. She is loyal to those she considers worth her time.
Charlotte is played by Rose.
