Lady Devon said he would be very much missed.

She said: "He could recognise people's voices and would respond to you.

"He was also 'solar panelled', as he was very active in the summer.

"You could call him, and he would come and say hello and have a strawberry."

He is to be buried at a family funeral in the grounds of the castle.

He will be missed.

For dynastic reasons it was decided in 1926 Timothy should mate. It was then discovered that he was, in fact, female.
