  “Lady Anne returned to Castlecomer to live, and began a major reconstruction of the town, church, and manor house. The new Castlecomer House, completed in 1802, was much larger and grander than the original. The house had 365 windows, one for each day of the year”

  Calendar houses were popular. So we’re there 52 rooms, and maybe 12 chimney stacks, or 12 staircases?

  suckindeesel Quite Adept I think this is our first (knowing) encounter with a calendar house?

• beachcomber australia said:

  Evidently Adare Manor is also a calendar house ...
  "... The building is a calendar house, featuring 365 windows and 52 chimneys, among some other design characteristics. Along the top of the building an extract of psalm 127:1 is made from carved stone: "Except the Lord build the house, then labour is but lost that built it"."

Interior view of St. James' Cathedral in Townsville

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  St James Anglican Cathedral, constructed in English Bond red brick with dressed sandstone trim, is located on a terraced site on Melton Hill between the Townsville central business district and Cleveland bay. The Gothic Revival building was built in two stages, both of which are quite obvious, both in materials and design. The main roof is clad with slate and has a small spire over the nave and transept junction. The lower roof to the side aisles and ambulatory has ribbed metal cladding. The chancel is surrounded by an ambulatory which contains the vestry and a Seaman's Chapel. The north transept has a large organ loft inserted and the roof features exposed trusses with a diagonally boarded ceiling. Cast iron columns with clerestory above separate the side aisles from the nave. The clerestory of the original section of the building contains stained glass windows.

  Thanks Lois for your research. We know a lot more about our house now. Wondering if Mary Boyd has more knowledge to share about the house
