EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the grandeur and historical significance of Chester Castle in Cheshire. The photograph, taken in 1920 by Aerofilms, showcases the meticulous reconstruction work carried out by Thomas Harrison between 1788 and 1822. The Neo-Classical style of architecture is evident in the forecourt complex, which exudes elegance and sophistication. This extensive renovation project not only revitalized the castle but also included the construction of a new prison within its walls. Despite these modern additions, remnants of medieval history can still be seen in the form of the Agricola Tower and curtain walls that have withstood the test of time. These ancient structures serve as a reminder of Chester Castle's rich past and its strategic importance throughout history. Aerial photography offers a unique perspective on this iconic landmark, allowing us to appreciate its scale and layout from above. The image provides an opportunity to marvel at both the architectural prowess displayed during its reconstruction and how it seamlessly integrates into its surroundings. Preserved within Historic England's Aerofilms Collection, this print serves as a valuable record documenting Chester Castle's evolution over time. It allows us to reflect upon our heritage while appreciating the beauty that lies within this historic fortress.
