Ok, so I saw that you'd posted several chapters of this last night, and I was ridiculously excited to see more fic from you (AND THE TITLE!), but I wanted to have some uninterrupted time to read it, so I'm starting now.
Wow! That was a big run-on sentence! :D
Anyway!
I *love* the AU you've set up here. The small village in the ruins of London. The cottage/former Chinese restaurant. The bell having religious significance. A 19 year old spinster! Wonderful world building!
I love how you've set up Rose's character: so clever that other people think her daft. I also love how you've described her bravery. She wants adventure so much she's going to do this thing she's been warned against all her life. I love how she's aware that nobody really knows what's down that road, so she's going to find out.
A fantastic start! I can't wait to read the rest! Oh, look! There's chapter 2!
