Irving House

Irving House, located in the heart of the Royal City, is one of the oldest community heritage sites in BC. Step back to the 1800s as you enter the colonial home of Captain William Irving, King of the Fraser River.

With 14 furnished rooms to enjoy, Irving House is a must see for everyone interested in New Westminster’s past and anyone interested in the Victorian period, heritage architecture or colonial BC. Admire the ornate ceiling plasterwork, the glow of original wallpaper and the elaborate fireplaces. You can easily imagine the festivities and celebrations that took place in the parlour and formal dining room. Let the costumed guides step you back in time!
