I loved this spot – a perfect blend of history and charm. Walking through the ancient city gate and across the 14th-century bridge feels like stepping back in time. Peaceful views of the River Dee, stone arches, and a rich sense of the past make it unforgettable.

It's amazing to think that medieval knights once rode out of Chester across this now very busy road bridge! It was built around 1387 and replaced earlier wooden structures that were washed away by floods. The weir next to it is even older, constructed in the 11th century to power corn mills along the riverbank. Despite frequent heavy motor traffic, the bridge is safe and easy to walk across, thanks to the one-way system, a pedestrian walkway on one side, and V-shaped refuges on the other. Lovely river views from both sides, and there's also a salmon leap close by. The Bridge Gate, which leads you from here into the city centre, dates from 1782, built to replace the old fortified medieval gate, and is part of the city walls. There's a great view of the bridge and the weir as you walk across it, and an information panel with some interesting historical facts. One of my favourite spots in Chester!
