Private Drive to Chase's Mansion

A curving, tree-lined gravel drive approaches the mansion’s grand façade, its surface scattering light through interlaced branches that filter dawn’s weak glow. The path’s edges press between manicured hedges, clipped low enough to reveal glimpses of rolling lawn beyond. Gravel crunches under tires, the only sound until undergrowth whispers when the car slows. At the bend before the front steps, the drive widens into a small gravel apron where the Doctor eases to a stop and hides Sarah in the underbrush before drifting back toward the gates with the stolen chauffeur’s hat pulled low.
