Everything about Edensor totally explained
Edensor (pronounced "EnZer") is a village in
Derbyshire,
England. It is the closest village to
Chatsworth House and much of it belongs to the
Dukes of Devonshire. Originally the village was close to the
River Derwent immediately below Chatsworth, but the Dukes had it moved out of sight over a hill, apart from one cottage whose tenant didn't want to move, which still stands in Chatsworth Park. The Chatsworth Estate office occupies a handsome red brick building which was built as an inn for visitors to Chatsworth in the 18th century.
Edensor's St Peter's church was expanded by Sir
George Gilbert Scott for the
7th Duke of Devonshire in the
1860s. It contains a magnificent early
17th century memorial to
Bess of Hardwick's sons, Henry and William Cavendish. Sir
Joseph Paxton is buried in the
churchyard, as is U.S. President
John F. Kennedy's sister
Kathleen Kennedy, who was married to the 10th Duke's eldest son. Kennedy visited the grave during his presidency.
The
hamlet of
Dunsa lies to the northwest of Edensor at .
