It's quite a long journey.

So, a very rough calculation:
A reasonable travelling speed for a carriage would be around seven or eight miles per hour, so they would be on the road for perhaps 24 hours or so, maybe more. I don't suppose that four gently bred ladies would be driving hell-for-leather, but would stop from time to time to eat and refresh themselves, as well as overnight stops. I think their journey could well take three or four days to accomplish, and I'll bet they were jolly thankful when they finally arrived! |
