Thank you for this great video. In June 2017, we will spend our vacation near Chester and like to visit this beautiful city. 38 years ago I was just a few hours there, and have never forgotten the town. Now I come back and look forward. Regards, Konrad / Germany.

Yes, this is one of my "time capsule" videos from the 80s. It was even featured in the local Chester newspaper a few years ago, as a historic flash-back. Some day I shall return and film an update.

@@denniscallan It's great also, because it's a way of seeing the city from a tourist and architectural perspective - which one seldom does. Let us know if you do return, and we'll show up to greet you! Luckily, with Chester having so many listed buildings, it remains fundamentally unchanged, but many of the old shops, including present day disappearing household names, and the reconfiguration of the Grosvenor precinct (the main shopping mall) means it's changed beyond recognition. Marks & Spencer is still where it's always been, though!

My theory on why the shopping was two levels...back before streets were paved, people had to contend with horse manure and all manners of filth while shopping. Having a second level, away from street level, meant that one could shop away from all of that. And perhaps, even, away from the "riffraff" lol.

Chester is a pretty placer to visit. Steeped in history, great day out. You will love seeing the place. Bit of advice though, it has more than its fair share of thieves, drunks and drug addicts that frequent the city center all day and night. They hang around all of the main areas for tourists, the ancient rows, the hole in ground posing as an amphitheater and down by the river too, and can get quite aggressive if drunk or high on their drugs. Take extra care to keep your wallets and purses safe, lock you car and park it in a public area. And keep your eyes wide open. Saying that enjoy your day. It has lots to see and do and you should, 'hopefully', leave with good memories.
