The Duke & Duchess's Plan for the Future: Chatsworth Through Time, Ep. 6: The 20th & 21st Centuries

The Duke and Duchess of Devonshire discuss how they have stewarded Chatsworth House - an estate established in the Elizabethan Period - into the 21st century. In this extensive interview, the 12th Duke of Devonshire reminisces about his parents who rescued Chatsworth from the brink of ruin after the Second World War. The Duke and Duchess then discuss the Masterplan, their remarkably ambitious renovation project and capital campaign from the early 2000s that conserved the stonework and statuary, renovated the roof and utilities, and preserved the estate for the twenty-first century. The Duke and Duchess are also notable for commissioning modern artworks and temporary installations in the gardens at Chatsworth, which drew praise and ire alike from critics and longtime visitors, and sparked a resurgence of attendance. Finally, the series concludes with a special message from Jane Marriott, the Director of the Chatsworth House Trust, in which she lays out the Trust’s plans to preserve Chatsworth and its collections well into the future. Chatsworth Through Time, produced by the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art in partnership with the Duke of Devonshire and the Chatsworth House Trust, explores the history, architecture, landscape, and collections of Chatsworth House. Beginning in the Tudor Period and progressing through five hundred years of history all the way to the 21st century, this series explores the world of Chatsworth, with its own curators, Alice Martin, Head of the Devonshire Collection, and Dr. Alex Hodby, Senior Curator of Programme, as our guides.
