- Description
- The Charles R. Shaw House is a one and one-half storey plus basement wood-frame late Victorian era residence, located on the grounds of the Normanna Rest Home development in East Burnaby, near its original location on this site. Originally a modest vernacular Victorian structure, it has been enlarged and embellished through later additions.
- Heritage Value
- The Shaw House is one of the oldest surviving houses in Burnaby, and is valued as a representation of a typical vernacular pioneer house in Burnaby, and a rare survivor from the late Victorian era. The original portion of the house displays a simplicity of form and detail consistent with early local construction, while the later additions display a more sophisticated approach. Originally built in 1891, this house is valued for its association with first owner, Charles R. Shaw (1834-1916) and Mary D. Shaw (1848-1897), one of Burnaby’s earliest settlers. Born in England, Shaw immigrated to Toronto in 1869, and relocated to New Westminster in 1889, where he worked as an employee of the Mechanic's Mill Company, an early woodworking plant. After moving to Burnaby, he was unanimously elected by acclamation as first reeve (mayor) of the new municipality in 1892. In 1894, Shaw sold his house and farm and moved his family to Kamloops due to his wife Mary's failing health. After Mary died in 1897, the Shaw family returned to Toronto. The Shaw House is additionally valued for its association with a later owner, James Brookes (1884-1953), founder of James Brookes Woodworking Ltd., a mill that was a major employer in East Burnaby. Brookes bought and renovated the house in 1917. In 1927, he built a much larger house on the property (now demolished), and the original house was moved to the corner of the property to serve as a gardener's cottage for Brookes' estate. The additions made to the house at this time employed sash and milled products produced by the Brookes plant. Although altered, this Victorian era residence remains largely intact, with Brookes’s later additions.
- Defining Elements
- Key elements that define the heritage character of the Shaw House include its: - modest vernacular residential form, scale and massing, as exemplified by its one and one-half storey plus basement height, front gabled roof, shed roofed verandah and asymmetrical plan - asymmetrical front entrance - cladding: horizontal wooden drop siding on the original portion of the house; cedar shingles on additions; decorative octagonal cedar shingles in the front gable; original decorated bargeboards at front, with cut-out details - later renovations to the front verandah and side addition which resulted in a partially glazed porch entrance and addition with large window assemblies - square verandah columns - irregular fenestration: double-hung wooden-sash windows in a variety of configurations such as 6-over-1 and 4-over-1 windows in the original portion of the house, 12-over-1 windows, and one 24-over-1 window in the front addition - small window at front entry - fifteen-pane French front entry door - internal red brick chimney with corbelled cap

- HV974.89.83
- Description
- Day dress, c. 1919. White cotton buratto lace. Mid-calf length, round neck, quarter length sleeves. This dress echoes the 1910s with its lace, natural waistline, and slightly poufed front; however, it also looks toward the 1920s with its straight cut and minimal shaping. The bodice has a row of embroidery going vertically down each side front. There is a scalloped closure on left front, which opens with a double row of snaps. On the bodice back, the two embroidery panels come together in a stepped V pattern, and the rest of the back is embroidered. Shaping in the bodice comes from side seams that angle toward the side back, creating more volume in the bodice front. The shoulder seams are also cut further back instead of sitting right on top of the shoulder. Each sleeve extends out of the bodice in kimono style, banded at the upper arm with a band of thicker weave and heavier weight white cotton fabric. Beneath this, the waistband pattern can be seen again: a band of embroidery bordered by lace. At the bottom of each sleeve there is one more band of lace. The waistline comes straight down from the square bodice; it consists of an embroidered panel bordered horizontally by two bands of lace. The bottom lace band is reinforced by a cotton tape on the inside. Gathered at the waist, the skirt has no other shaping. It is unadorned for the first two thirds, and then embroidery gradually reaches a scalloped lace hem. The dress is made almost entirely of buratto lace, which uses a foundation of twined weave fabric with the threads uniformly loose to produce a net-like base for embroidery. It is machine sewn, mainly with french seams, and unlined.
