River Dee Chester
Visit Chester, and sit on the waterfront, enjoying live music and watching the world go by .There is plenty of seating, including shady areas for those rare English sunny days, and always something to watch on the water. AND if it's a Chester Taxi you're looking for we won't let you down.
The bandstand often features real musicians, and there is a regular art market held just under the City walls, with works being displayed & sold by local artists. Add some lovely Cheshire Farm ice cream and you have a perfect summer afternoon (English weather permitting!)
If you are in Chester it is well worth going down to the riverbank. On a sunny day it is really beautiful and there will often be musicians playing. If you go for a walk along the bank you get to very nice countryside and there are boat trips if you are not up to walking
Grosvenor Park Chester
LYING adjacent to the River Dee, the 20 acre park was donated to the city by Richard, the second Marquis of Westminster and was opened in 1867.
If you're looking for a Chester Taxi give us a try first and we won't let you down.
The park was designed by Edward Kemp who was a pupil of Joseph Paxton, architect of Crystal palace.
The Chester Chronicle recorded the park opening celebrations on November 9th, 1867: 'The procession was one of the grandest ever witnessed in Chester, and it was about a mile in length'.
Kemp's general design layout has been retained to this day and the park is considered one of the best examples of Victorian parkland in the North West.
The park has a number of interesting features, these include:
St. Mary's Arch - Dating from around the 13th century, the arch was removed from St. Mary's Benedictine Nunnery, which was ruined by Henry VIII's Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1637.
Jacob's Well Drinking Fountain - A small stone arch that once had a fountain and a dish for their pets.
Old Shipgate Arch - This once stood at the west of Bridgegate and was taken down in 1831.
Statue - A testimonial to the Marquis of Westminster, the statue was designed by Thomas Thornicroft.
'Bill Hobby's Well' - The land on which the park was built was once called 'Bill Hobby's Field' and the well existed at that time.

Walls of Chester
Chester, England
To see Chester, this is how you do it. The walls are about 2 miles in length and if done properly will take you around an hour to see it all. It takes you around what was Roman-Chester with information points and the highlight of the journey is standing at EastGate underneath the famous clock, looking out over to Foregate Street on one side and Eastgate Street on the other.
These walls go around a portion of the city. You can view the river dee from the top, see the clock tower, and at some points, there are turrets. It’s worthwhile doing. This is a cute city. You can view the amphitheatre from these walls.
For a reliable Chester Taxi give us a call an we won't let you down!
