Description


When the Normans started to build modern day Chester they discovered that the sandstone the city is built upon was too hard to dig down into to create cellars, so instead they put the cellars at ground level and built the shops, and arcades at first floor level. Today most the cellars have also been converted into shops creating a double-deck city centre.
