Margaret Patterson is the housekeeper employed by the Vickery family. She is a kindly-hearted but no-nonsense woman who has been employed by Lord Saltash for nearly thirty years, starting out originally as a housemaid. She is good friends with Mrs Bird, the cook.
Despite her employers, colleagues and subordinates addressing her as 'Mrs', this is mere courtesy as she has never married. The butler has 'a crush' on her that is seemingly apparent to every servant in the household except Mrs Patterson herself, although he has not made any steps towards actually courting her, and rumours and gossip about it are firmly squashed by Mrs Bird, Lord Saltash's valet and Lady Saltash's lady's maid - when the more junior staff are overheard chattering, anyway. If any of the family are aware, they have not said anything.
