Old Dee Bridge Weir

Highlight • Bridge

The Old Dee Bridge in Chester, Cheshire, England is the oldest bridge in the city. It crosses the River Dee and carries the road leading to Handbridge from the end of Lower Bridge Street and the Bridgegate. A bridge on this site was first built in Roman times, and the current bridge is largely the result of a major reconstruction in 1387. It is listed on the National Heritage List for England as a Category I listed building, and is a scheduled monument. (Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Dee_Bridge)

Highlight • Settlement

In every street of the old town you can see many houses with this specific style - what a pleasure to observe each of them, looking similar but so many differences when you pay attention. Some of them are really old…

Chester is known for its Grade II-listed buildings, many of which date back centuries and feature black-and-white timber-framed architecture. While Paysan itself is a modern establishment, the building it occupies has deep historical roots.

Chester Cathedral is a fully functioning church with over 20 regular services per week, ensuring the cathedral is a vibrant hub for the Chester community.

There's something going on every day at Chester Cathedral. Whether you're visiting the latest exhibition, taking the Cathedral at Height tour or touring the gardens, there's truly something for every member of the family at Chester Cathedral. (Source:chester.com/listing/chester-cathedral/)
