This house was built in 1906-08 by Ira E. and Marion Hinton Bradshaw, lifelong residents of southern Utah. It was the first permanent house built in the town of Hurricane, which was established soon after completion of the Hurricane Canal in 1904.
In addition to its use as the Bradshaw family residence, the house served as the first school in the town, as the Sunday School meeting place, and for a variety of public gatherings. The Bradshaws and later their daughter, operated it as a boarding house and hotel for over 25 years.
The house was saved from demolition in 1988 and rehabilitated as part of the Hurricane Valley Heritage Park and Pioneer Museum.
