One Arch Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

At the south end of the park is One Arch Bridge, which was built in 1759–1760. This coursed, squared sandstone and ashlar structure is a feature of the south park, its single round arch reflecting in the river to great effect when the water is calm. From the bridge there are views north to Paine’s Mill.

Edensor Village

Highlight • Cafe

This quaint little village was built by the 6th Duke of Devonshire. The Duke decided to demolish the old estate village and rebuild it out of sight in the 19th century – because it spoiled his view! Nestled in Chatsworth Park, the village features a delightful hotchpotch of traditional house designs, from mock Tudor to Swiss cottage.

St Peter's Church, Edensor

Highlight • Religious Site

The original village of Edensor was located immediately next to Chatsworth House, but between 1838 and 1842 the 6th Duke of Devonshire had it demolished so it would be out of sight over a hill. The planning of the new village and the parish church was overseen by Joseph Paxton. The church was built for the 7th Duke of Devonshire. Consecrated in 1870, St Peter's comprises a west steeple, nave with aisles, chancel, north vestry and south east chapel.

A 2020 report states that the current church with its 166-feet-high spire, designed by George Gilbert Scott, was not built until about 25 years after the village was completed. It was a "replacement for the original squat-towered church that had occupied the site previously". Derbyshire Council states that "Edensor Church was taken down and rebuilt in 1867, incorporating some of the old Norman" church. Another source specifies that "very little remains of the Norman church".

View of Chatsworth House

Highlight • Viewpoint

Chatsworth House is like something from a period drama. In fact, it was the filming location for Mr Darcy’s Pemberley home in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. Standing proudly amid rolling hills with the River Derwent meandering gently by, it is a stunning sight.

The 17th-century house contains works of art that span 4,000 years. The 105-acre garden, designed by Joseph Paxton, is equally famous. With historic waterworks, sculptures, a Victorian rock garden, a maze, plus more, there is a lot to explore.
