Chatsworth House Grounds Description
The gardens, designed by Joseph Paxton from 1826 onwards, are delightful, with romantic fountains, spectacular cascades and enchanted pathways, an orangery, rose-garden and tropical greenhouse. The landscaped park surrounding the gardens was designed by "Capability" Brown. There is also a reserve for animals. On a hill behind the house is the Elizabethan hunting tower, from which there is a good view. Near the bridge is Queen Mary's Bower, which serves to commemorate Mary Queen of Scots, who was confined at Chatsworth on several occasions between 1570 and 1581.
