 The most notable Carden was undoubtedly John Rutter Carden (1811–1866), better known as 'Woodcock', so-called by irate tenants because he was as difficult to shoot as the bird of that name.As well as constructing the folly, he built a magnificent family home on the lower slopes of the mountain.Although the house was demolished in the early 20th century, the ruins of the walled garden can still be seen.
