Chatsworth House is a stately home in the Derbyshire Dales, 4 miles north-east of Bakewell and 9 miles west of Chesterfield, England. The seat of the Duke of Devonshire, it has belonged to the Cavendish family since 1549. It stands on the east bank of the River Derwent, across from hills between the Derwent and Wye valleys, amid parkland backed by wooded hills that rise to heather moorland. The house holds major collections of paintings, furniture, Old Master drawings, neoclassical sculptures and books. Chosen several times as Britain's favorite country house, it is a Grade I listed property from the 17th century, altered in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 2011-2012 it underwent a £14-million restoration. The owner is the Chatsworth House Trust, an independent charitable foundation formed in 1981, on behalf of the Cavendish family. The name 'Chatsworth' is a corruption of Chetel's-worth, meaning "the Court of Chetel". In the reign of Edward the Confessor, a man of Norse origin named Chetel held lands jointly with a Saxon named Leotnoth in three townships: Ednesoure to the west of the Derwent, and Langoleie and Chetesuorde to the east. Chetel was deposed after the Norman Conquest, and in the Domesday Book of 1086 the Manor of Chetesuorde is listed as the property of the Crown in the custody of William de Peverel. The modern history of Chatsworth begins in 1950. The family had yet to move back after the war. Deborah Vivien Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire, DCVO (born Deborah Vivien Freeman-Mitford and latterly Deborah, Dowager Duchess of Devonshire; 31 March 1920 - 24 September 2014) was an English aristocrat, writer, memoirist, and socialite. She was the youngest and last-surviving of the six Mitford sisters, who were prominent members of British society in the 1930s and 1940s. One of Deborah Devonshire's predecessors as duchess was Georgiana, whose outrageous fashions and extravagant lifestyle made her the 18th Century equivalent of a rock star. Deborah was not quite that famous, but posterity will show she was equally significant. Instead of racking up enormous gambling debts as Georgiana did, Deborah's clever management saved the Devonshires from the ruin of exorbitant death duties. This was Deborah's first book, in which she writes about the Chatsworth house and gardens and those who have lived there. First paperback edition [stated]. Presumed first printing thus.
