Shans and Virnacular Architecture by R.W. Brun- skell. Yet we are in a time when the environment of our villages is vulnerable to pressures of progress and population explosion. He praised a recent book "The Barn" by Eric Arthur and Douglas White which is filled with beautiful pictures and descriptions of architecture. The old natural wooden ones are fast being replaced by aluminum siding. Situated at the mouth of the Bayfield River, geography had already played a large part in environment of our Village when its site was chosen by Baron de Tuyll and its plan made. The open lake, the river emptying in to it and the broad rolling valley running far to the east, were all there, The plan chosen for the Village added interest and opportunity for variety of scene. Mr. Hill illustrated his talk at this point by quick blackboard drawings of some town plans such as Goderich, Bayfield, Zurich and 13russels, all very different, and suggested some of the problems and solutions possible in the preservation and growth of towns and villages, He used slides to illustrate many of these showing how the Varied and unique qualities of each can be preserved and the environment maintained.
