About Chester

Chester is famous for many things and one of these is its history. 2000 years ago the Roman occupied Chester and are responsible for the original city walls built at this time. The Roman's 20th Legion, one of the three stationed in Britain during the occupation, threw up the original earthworks of the wall. Their fortress, which they called Deva, stood on a sandstone mound in a bend of the River Dee at the head of the estuary.

The four main roads of the camp, now called Northgate Street, Eastgate Street, Watergate Street and Bridge Street, remain exactly where the Roman surveyor marked them out 1,900 years ago. Today the walls are entirely walkable, and offer a nice 2 mile leisurely stroll. The walls also offer some splendid view over the city on one side and on the other the distant Welsh Mountains.
