  • This Place Has Capabilities a Lancelot 'Capability' Brown Teachers Pack
    This Place has Capabilities A Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown Teachers Pack Welcome to our teachers’ pack for the 2016 tercentenary of the birth of Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown. Lancelot Brown was born in the small village of Kirkhale in Northumberland in 1716. His name is linked with more than 250 estates, throughout England and Wales, including Stowe in Buckinghamshire, Blenheim Palace (Oxfordshire) Dinefwr Park (Carmarthenshire) and, of course Chatsworth. His first visit to Chatsworth was thought to have been in 1758 and he worked on the landscape here for over 10 years, generally visiting about twice a year to discuss plans and peg out markers so that others could get on with creating his vision. It is thought that Lancelot Brown’s nickname came from his ability to assess a site for his clients, ‘this place has its capabilities’. He was famous for taking away traditional formal gardens and avenues to create ‘natural’ landscapes and believed that if people thought his landscapes were beautiful and natural then he had succeeded. 1 Education at Chatsworth A journey of discovery chatsworth.org Index Page Chatsworth Before Brown 3 Brown’s Chatsworth 6 Work in the Park 7 Eye-catchers 8 Work in the Garden and near the House 12 Back at School 14 Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown 2 Education at Chatsworth A journey of discovery chatsworth.org Chatsworth before Brown The Chatsworth that Brown encountered looked something like this: Engraving of Chatsworth by Kip and Knyff published in Britannia Illustrata 1707 The gardens were very formal and organised, both to the front and back of the house.

  • The American Lawn: Culture, Nature, Design and Sustainability
    THE AMERICAN LAWN: CULTURE, NATURE, DESIGN AND SUSTAINABILITY _______________________________________________________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University _______________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Landscape Architecture _______________________________________________________________________________ by Maria Decker Ghys May 2013 _______________________________________________________________________________ Accepted by: Dr. Matthew Powers, Committee Chair Dr. Ellen A. Vincent, Committee Co-Chair Professor Dan Ford Professor David Pearson ABSTRACT This was an exploratory study examining the processes and underlying concepts of design nature, and culture necessary to discussing sustainable design solutions for the American lawn. A review of the literature identifies historical perceptions of the lawn and contemporary research that links lawns to sustainability. Research data was collected by conducting personal interviews with green industry professionals and administering a survey instrument to administrators and residents of planned urban development communi- ties. Recommended guidelines for the sustainable American lawn are identified and include native plant usage to increase habitat and biodiversity, permeable paving and ground cover as an alternative to lawn and hierarchical maintenance zones depending on levels of importance or use. These design recommendations form a foundation

  • George Edmund Street
    DOES YOUR CHURCH HAVE WORK BY ONE OF THE GREATEST VICTORIAN ARCHITECTS? George Edmund Street Diocesan Church Building Society, and moved to Wantage. The job involved checking designs submitted by other architects, and brought him commissions of his own. Also in 1850 he made his first visit to the Continent, touring Northern France. He later published important books on Gothic architecture in Italy and Spain. The Diocese of Oxford is extraordinarily fortunate to possess so much of his work In 1852 he moved to Oxford. Important commissions included Cuddesdon College, in 1853, and All Saints, Boyne Hill, Maidenhead, in 1854. In the next year Street moved to London, but he continued to check designs for the Oxford Diocesan Building Society, and to do extensive work in the Diocese, until his death in 1881. In Berkshire alone he worked on 34 churches, his contribution ranging from minor repairs to complete new buildings, and he built fifteen schools, eight parsonages, and one convent. The figures for Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire are similar. Street’s new churches are generally admired. They include both grand town churches, like All Saints, Boyne Hill, and SS Philip and James, Oxford (no longer in use for worship), and remarkable country churches such as Fawley and Brightwalton in Berkshire, Filkins and Milton- under-Wychwood in Oxfordshire, and Westcott and New Bradwell in Buckinghamshire. There are still some people for whom Victorian church restoration is a matter for disapproval. Whatever one may think about Street’s treatment of post-medieval work, his handling of medieval churches was informed by both scholarship and taste, and it is George Edmund Street (1824–81) Above All Saints, Boyne His connection with the Diocese a substantial asset for any church to was beyond doubt one of the Hill, Maidenhead, originated in his being recommended have been restored by him.
