Overview
- Regional travel features highlight Edensor (pronounced 'Enza') inside Chatsworth Park in the Peak District.
- The 6th Duke of Devonshire ordered the old settlement demolished to clear views of Chatsworth House, then had the village rebuilt in the 1830s.
- Sir Joseph Paxton’s plan mixed styles—reportedly on the Duke’s instruction to choose 'one of each'—producing mock Tudor, Swiss Cottage and other designs.
- St Peter’s church stands out with its spire and interior monuments, with Cavendish family graves in the churchyard.
- Visitor details include the year-round Edensor Tea Cottage in the former post office, Chesterfield as the nearest rail link, buses to Chatsworth, and nearby parking under an hour’s drive from Derby.
