Transcription: Brown earned his nickname because he was able to see the capabilities of his clients estates. Even when the great Vanbra got there first, Brown still found capabilities. Vanbra's designs for the Duke of Marlborough's Palace of Blenheim in Oxfordshire had included a bridge over the stream, but it was Brown who broadened the into this great curving lake and who brought the lawns right up to the walls of the house. Brown's improvements at Blenheim cost thirty thousand pound, a fortune in those days.
