Synopsis

Several editions of these fold-out guides, published over the last ten to fifteen years, have proved extremely popular with visitors to the walled city of Chester. In fact, the guides have been read and enjoyed by well over 100,000 people.

Well-written, carefully themed and structured, and beautifully designed, these guides are packed with useful information. Each guide features an aerial bird's-eye view map of Chester with a numbered and annotated walking route around themed key points of interest.

The Walk around Chester Walls tours the 2 mile circuit of the outstanding Roman and medieval city walls, while the companion Walk around Chester conducts visitors around the compact and ancient city within the walls, looking at everything from Roman remains to medieval town houses, churches and historic inns.

Haunted Chester takes walkers on a tour of the many ghostly and spooky haunts within this 2,000 year old city. It's guaranteed to scare you witless with tales of death, murder and plague.

The first three guides follow a 12 panel fold out concertina format, printed in full colour on quality silk art paper, with generous illustrations and modern and archive photographs. The Roman Chester guide has a larger, fold out A2 format and is packed with maps, illustrations, quotes and fascinating snippets on the key features of the Roman legionary fortress of Deva.

Together, the four guides form the ideal introduction to visitors to Chester, offering a real insight into every nook and corner of this fascinating English walled city.
