    If you drive in by the front of where the house was you could ask the owner of that house if he has any information as it was his family home.
    Mr.C Evans is his name.:D

    It was called Charlesland House as far as I know and was the old family house on the estate. As Bido says the house down the driveway belongs to the Evan's family and Charlesland House used to be their granmothers house! Good luck with the dream...

    I really didn't think that much of that house. Have a look in the Old Burnaby. Now there's some smashing houses there.

    That house was built about 85 years ago and took several months to build as all the concrete blocks were made on site. Lewis Evans and his family lived there originally. I don't think it had a name even though it was on the Charlesland farm.
