This could almost be Chatsworth in Derbyshire and that's because Capability Brown had a hand in both. It's actually Wrest Park, Bedfordshire.
Looking like a French chateau, this house was at Wrest Park dates from the 1830s, set in C18th grounds. The formal gardens and canal were created by Amabel Benn, and his son, Anthony, the 11th Earl of Kent in the 1700s and improved upon by successive generations.
In 1833, Thomas Robinson, 2nd Earl de Grey inherited the estate. He demolished the old house and built a new one between 1834 – 39.
Since 1900 its fortunes have changed. It was rented to the American ambassador for a while and used as a convalescent home and military hospital in WWI but in 1916 a fire meant they were evacuated and never returned. In 1917 it was sold and then fell into decline. From 1948 it was home to the National Institute of Agricultural Engineering, later the Silsoe Research Institute. When they closed in 2006, English Heritage took over. the house.

Grounds designed by Lancelot Brown (1716 – 6 February 1783), more commonly known as Capability Brown, was an English landscape gardener. He is remembered as "the last of the great English eighteenth-century artists to be accorded his due", and "England's greatest gardener". He designed over 170 parks, many of which still endure.Compton Verney House, the present mansion, was built by George Verney, twelfth Lord Willoughby de Broke in 1714. In 1780, the fourteenth Earl employed Robert Adam for the purpose of carrying out major extensions to the manor. The grounds were landscaped by Lancelot "Capability" Brown who constructed two lakes almost a mile long from a number of smaller pools. The house was bought in 1993 in a run-down state by Littlewoods millionaire Sir Peter Moores, and restored into an art gallery capable of hosting international exhibitions.

Units will concentrate on training selected mission essential tasks in a realistic field environment to refocus junior leaders on tactical field craft. The Army National Guard’s XCTC program provides an experience similar to a Combat Training Center to Guard Soldiers at a home station training center, minimizing cost and time away from home and jobs. XCTC is an instrumented field training exercise designed to certify unit proficiency in coordination with First Army. (Photo by Cotton Puryear, Virginia National Guard Public Affairs)

Stowe landscape garden is most notably the work of two people: Lord Cobham and his nephew, Earl Temple. At one time this family was once richer than the king. The Temple family spent a fortune creating and extending the garden to further their political ambitions. Stowe was 'Capability' Brown's first major commission. Stowe reached its social peak in 1822 when Richard Temple was created 1st Duke of Buckingham, but by this time his and his ancestors extravagence had taken the family to the brink of financial ruin with debts of more than £1 million. The 2nd Duke fled and the scandel rocked the English aristocracy.
Stowe was rescued in 1922, when it was turned into a school.

Sheffield Park Garden is an informal landscape garden five miles east of Haywards Heath, in East Sussex, England. It was originally laid out in the 18th century by Capability Brown, and further developed in the early years of the 20th century's by its then owner, Arthur Gilstrap Soames. It is now owned by the National Trust.
History[edit]
The gardens originally formed part of the estate of the adjacent Sheffield Park House, a gothic country house, which is still in private ownership. It was also firstly owned by the West Family and later by the Soames family until in 1925 the estate was sold by Arthur Granville Soames, who had inherited it from his childless uncle, Arthur Gilstrap Soames.
Sheffield Park as an estate is mentioned in the Domesday Book. In August 1538, Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, entertained Henry VIII here. By 1700, the Deer Park had been partially formalised by Lord De La Warr who planted avenues of trees radiating from the house and cleared areas to establish lawns. In the late 1700s, James Wyatt remodelled the house in the fashionable Gothic style and Capability Brown was commissioned to landscape the garden. The original four lakes form the centrepiece. Humphry Repton followed Brown in 1789–1790. In 1796, the estate was sold to John Holroyd, created Baron Sheffield in 1781. It is particularly noted for its plantings of trees selected for autumn colour, including many Black Tupelos.
Rhododendron in Sheffield Park Garden
By 1885, an arboretum was being established, consisting of both exotic and native trees. After Arthur Gilstrap Soames purchased the estate in 1910, he continued large-scale planting. During World War II the house and garden became the headquarters for a Canadian armoured division, and Nissen huts were sited in the garden and woods. The estate was split up and sold in lots in 1953. The National Trust purchased approximately 40 ha in 1954, now up to 80 ha with subsequent additions. It is home to the National Collection of Ghent azaleas.
In 1876 the third Earl of Sheffield laid out a cricket pitch. It was used on 12 May 1884 for the first cricket match between England and Australia.[1] The Australian team won by an innings and 6 runs

Bowood House
The Bowood Estate was bought in 1754 by the 1st Earl of Shelburne. His descendants have lived here ever since.
The house sits within 100 acres of beautifully landscaped ‘Capability’ Brown Parkland.
The house and gardens have featured in several Film and TV drama productions including Sanditon, Downton Abbey and Poldark.

Marquess of Landsdown
Since 1754 the estate has been the seat of the Earls of Shelburne, created Marquesses of Lansdowne in 1784.
Marquess of Lansdowne is a title in the Peerage of Great Britain created in 1784. It is held by the head of the Petty-Fitzmaurice family.

Terrace Gardens
The south-facing Terrace Gardens in front of the Georgian House were commissioned by the 3rd Marquess to remind him of his time in Italy.
The upper terrace, designed by Sir Robert Smirke, was completed in 1818 and the lower terrace, designed by George Kennedy, was added in 1851.
The upper and lower terraces are separated by ornamental stone balustrades decorated with urns which, during the summer months, overflow with colourful flowers.
The distinctive leaning yews were planted in 1900, and over the years they have grown towards the sun creating a unique design.
The terrace gardens provide a view of the magnificent parkland, created by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown.

"Breadth of Capability": Land Rover celebrates 60 years
Text on plaque beneath sculpture:
"Since the very first Land Rover made its debut at the 1948 Amsterdam Motor Show, this celebrated British marque has set the standard for traversing any terrain and rising to any challenge.
Now - 60 years and four million vehicles later - its unique breadth of capabilities has ensured that the Land Rover name has entered everyday language as the generic term for go-anywhere vehicles.
This sculpture by Gerry Judah represents the firm foundations on which Land Rover builds a commitment to future growth in a changing world."
Vehicles displayed are: Land Rover Defender, Land Rover Discovery, Land Rover Freelander, and Range Rover.
