Penelope and William, 2nd Baron Spencer were invited to live in the mansion at Althorp by William's father, Robert 1st Baron Spencer, of Wormleighton, after the death of his wife Margaret. He handed over the day-to-day administration of the housekeeping to Penelope. She introduced and implemented a more comprehensive, precise, and accessible bookkeeping system at Althorp. Other introductions by Penelope were forks, to be used with knives at meal times and an installation of a belly pulley in her bedroom.
