Chester a combination of Roman and medieval relics, as well as many fine
timber-framed buildings, makes Chester, the city of Deva, one of England's most
interesting old cities. It also contains the architecturally important work of
Thomas Harrison, who rebuilt the castle and constructed a single-span bridge
here in the early 19th cent., as well as some excellent examples of Victorian
black-and-white buildings. It has been chosen for government conservation
studies, which will perhaps ensure the survival of its historic monuments. |
