For a nation renowned for its love of gardening, Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown is one of our greatest exports. The English landscape garden, epitomised by places such as Stowe or Blenheim Palace, are achievements on a world scale. In this, the 300th anniversary of Brown’s birth, Oliver Cox will explain how these beautiful garden landscapes were created and how eighteenth century landscape design has inspired post-war reconstruction.
