Probate by Chris Hardy A dozen picture frames neatly stacked, sharpened pencils and an ivory knife, folded squares of lace, small cups with scenes of eighteenth century Oxford and a print of a park near Arundel that no one wants.
In the shed a box of new door fittings and on the top a 'Georgian style' brass letter-flap, still wrapped, ready to be fitted in a slot cut in the freshly painted door, through which letters from the future will fall.
