The Rows, Chester: A Glimpse into the Past (circa 1900) The Rows, a distinctive and charming feature of Chester, England, are captured in this photograph from the early 20th century. Part of the Boswell collection, this lantern slide offers a unique perspective into the history of this beautiful city. The Rows, located in the heart of Chester, are a series of two-tiered, timber-framed buildings that date back to the 13th and 14th centuries. These structures were originally built to accommodate the city's merchants and craftsmen, who lived and worked above their shops. Over the centuries, they have become a symbol of Chester's rich history and architectural heritage. In this photograph, the timbered buildings are bathed in soft, natural light, revealing their intricate details. The rows are lined with small, quaint shops, many of which still sell traditional goods and wares. The cobblestone streets add to the old-world charm, transporting us back in time. The County of Chester, located in the North West of England, has a rich history that spans over 2,000 years. The city of Chester, in particular, is renowned for its Roman walls, medieval architecture, and picturesque setting along the River Dee. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of this historic city. As we gaze at this image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations. The Rows continue to be a popular tourist destination and a source of pride for the people of Chester. This photograph is a precious reminder of the past, offering us a glimpse into the history and character of this remarkable city.
