Moore Park “Ginkgo” re-build

Here’s something nice from nearby Moore Park. This gracious centre-hall home is being re-built. While it’s still too early to tell exactly what’s going to be done, you can bet those lovely stone lintels and arches will remain. But wait, there’s more. The best part is seen at the right. Two fine mature Gingko trees stand guard in front of this house. Much care has been taken to see that they are not damaged during the work. As expert sources say, Ginkgo trees will likely only be found in the very southernmost parts of Ontario. They are not native to Ontario, but to China. They are easily identified by their distinctive leaves.
