Emperor Fountain and Canal Pond.
The emperor fountain can reach a height of 90 metres. Powered by pressure of the water dropping 122 metres, through a 40 centimetre iron pipe, from a man-made lake.
The 1st Duke of Devonshire's Canal Pond already held the highest fountain in the country (28 metres) when Paxton began to engineer the Emperor Fountain for the 6th Duke in 1843. Named in honour of Tsar Nicholas I (a friend of the 6th Duke, but he never visited Chatsworth).
The Emperor Fountain is Grade II listed.

This sculpture is part of the 'Beyond Limits' - Sotheby's at Chatsworth exhibition and was in the sculpture gallery. Life size and totally complete - even down to the cellulite on her hips - I thought it seriously creepy

The Cascade close up at the gardens at Chatsworth.
Kids were playing all over it, although it was never designed for that! Hope they didn't slip!
The Cascade and its Temple were the crowning point of the 1st Duke of Devonshire's garden. Took two attempts, and 17 years to complete, four years after his death. May have been inspired by Louis XIV's French palace at Marly. Thomas Archer one of the Duke's architects designed the temple.

The Rockery at Chatsworth Gardens.
This was one of the most ambitious rock gardens of its time and is entirely artificial. In 1838 the 6th Duke invited Paxton to join him on a Grand Tour of Europe and Paxton built the Rockery as a reminder of their journey through the Alps. He invented a steam-powered machine to lift the locally quarried gritstone rocks into position.
Below the Rockery, Paxton built the Strid, an imitation of the Strid at Bolton Abbey, the Duke's North Yorkshire estate.

I'm taking time out of the Norfolk set to show the photos I took during a visit to Chatsworth House Gardens to see this year's "Beyond Limits" set of sculptures. It is well worth a visit and if you're rich and fancy one then contact Sotheby's.
This is Damien Hirst's "Legend" and "Myth".
