The 1947 drystone embankment fence in front of St. Cuthbert’s Anglican Church was removed Wednesday, part of a carefully prepared plan to create a more inviting entrance to the old church. The St Cuthbert’s Norman-style building dates from 1914 but the fence was something of an afterthought. As told by Lorna Krawchuck in Leaside Life, there was a lawn bowling green on the church picnic ground to the south. Bowls frequently rolled right into Bayview Ave it seems. Her article describes the many pleasant and welcoming features of the new frontage.
