About this Event
This gentle Sunday afternoon walk will explore the upper part of Bridge Street and its Rows. Your professional local guide, Katie, will share some stories along the route but you'll also have plenty of chance to chat with fellow walkers.
Running from the Chester Cross down towards the River Dee, the street is lined by the black and white fronted Chester Rows, the unique two-tiered shopping arcades dating back to the medieval period.
Known for its many bars, cafes and restaurants, as well as great shopping, the street contains many hidden treasures, including some of Chester's surviving medieval lanes. And why are there quite so many jewellers?
PLEASE NOTE: This is an extended and updated version of one of my regular monthly lunchtime netwalks for those who were unable to attend earlier in the year.
I am running a number of these walks over the summer on the 1st Sunday of the month at 2.15 pm from May to September. Please follow me for details of these and other upcoming events.
Who are these netwalks for?
Literally everyone and anyone! Some of the best connections can be made whilst just walking and chatting. As well as an opportunity to get out and about in the fresh air, it is a great way to meet some like-minded people and share some interesting conversations along the way. Perfect for anyone who loves all things Chester related - local and visitor alike. Please come along and join us!
Where’s it happening?
Please meet outside the main entrance of the Storyhouse on Hunter Street, CH1 2AR for a prompt start at 2:15 pm.
The walk will last approximately 75 minutes and will end at the Chester Cross.
I'll be at the meeting point from 2pm so please come along and introduce yourself.
