Anyone who is interested in the early architecture of Ontario is sure to like a new Durham Regional Calendar which went on sale in Whitby last week. The calender features pen and ink sketches of old buildings in the region by Laurel Campbell-Stark, wbo graduated from the Ontario College of Art in 1973. Mrs. Stark lives in a field stone farmn house built by ber husband's ancestor James Stark, north of Columbus in 1839, and has been interested in l9th century architecture for a number of years. "I chose some of the architectural styles of the region for- the calendar because I wanted to bring the architectural history of Durham to the attention 0f tbe people of the commun- ity," says Mrs. Stark. She dedicates ber calendar "to the designers and crafts- men who have created these structures -wbicb we now treasure as our architectural heritage in Durham Region. " In designing ber calendar, Mrs. Stark has tried to present a representative sarnple 0f various styles of architecture from all parts of the Region of Durham. For Wbitby, she chose "Toad Hall" the residence of lawyer Gary Shewan, located on Brock Street north of Rossland Road. The major portion of this red and yellow brick bouse was built about 1875 by James Rice, a wealtby Whitby farmer, whose son John Rice was secretary-treasurer of the Ontario Ladies' College for many years. The site of the bouse was known in the old days as "Rice's Hill." Mr. SheWan has in recent years, restored the Rice house to. its Victorian grandeur. For Brooklin,,Mrs. Stark chose St. Thomas Anglican Church, a white frame build- ing constructed in 1869, and located at the corner of Winchester and Anderson Streets. In ber notes on the cburcb, Mrs. Stark mentions that at the turn-of the century, the original bell' feli fromn the church tower when tbe rector was ringing the new year in. Other buildings featured in the Durham Region Calendar are: Parkwood, Col. Sam McLaughlin's home in Oshawa, the Van- stone Mill in Bowmanv4le, the Quaker meeting bouse at uxbricte, the Kirby school, the Joseph Bigelo'w bouse at Port Perry, Columbus United Cburch and a number of pioneer homes. Two thousand, copies of the calendar have been printed, and Mrs. Stark expects there will be a "second printing. The Wbitby outlet for sales of the calendar is Plum Hollow books, where tbey were sold out in less than a week. A second order bas been brougbt in since then. Mrs. Stark is a member of Whitby Arts Incorporated and is teacbing cbildren's, art classes at the Station Gallery this summer. She previously taught art in high schools in Hull, Quebec. The production of calen- dars of historic buildings is a new venture for ber. Besides the Durbam Region Calen- dar, she produced a 1979 calendar of old buildings for ýhe village of Cannington. The calendars serve two purposes, sbe says. Tbey provide a calendar for the year 1979, and the drawings of the buildings can be framed once the year is finished.
