The Pickersgill Premises on Burdens Point, Salvage is a Registered Heritage Property of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It consists of two salt box houses and four outbuildings. The houses were built in 1912 and 1914 by the Burden and Dunn families at a time when Burdens Point was a bustling community of people who prosecuted the salt cod schooner fishery.

Salvage is one of the oldest permanently settled communities in Newfoundland. Several families continue to operate their fishing enterprises.
