History
Gardener’s Cottage is the one house left untouched when the 6th Duke of Devonshire completed his landscaping improvements in the mid 1830’s. While the entire village of Edensor was relocated, this house remained in its original position, though the reason why remains a mystery. Since then, it has been renovated and re-named after one of the Chatsworth gardeners, who lived there prior to the refurbishment.
