Chatsworth features as aristocratic horse-trainer May Carleton's mansion in series two of Peaky Blinders. Tommy contracts May to train his horse for the Epsom races - as he plans to take control of the racecourses in the south.

With Cillian Murphy starring as Thomas Shelby, Charlotte Riley as May Carleton and Annabelle Wallis as Grace Burgess, who all feature in the episodes shot at Chatsworth.
