I wasn't sure what I was going to post today but searching old photographs I came across this plague in the street.
The Millennium Trail is a city walk covering forty of Chester's most important buildings. Starting at the town hall this two hour walk covers the City Centre and parts of the City Walls.
This stop was #21 at the top of Bridge Street.
My other M posts today are Man up a Tree at Hyde Daily Photo ~~ Mule Spinners at Old Hyde ~~ M&S at Sithenah.
To visit other ABC M posts go to Mrs. Nesbitt's Place.
We almost made it to the Chester city center. I'd love to do that walk.
ReplyDeletevery interesting approach:)
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a neat walk.... I wouldn't mind doing that.

A really good post.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like an adventure looking for these markers on the ground to identify the important buildings in town.
ReplyDeleteThat walks sounds fun and a good way to stay healthy and learn the towns history in on e stroke. Good use for M today.
ReplyDeleteWe stayed briefly in Chester last year. It's a beautiful old city.
ReplyDeleteAfter trying to find Chester on the map through your city´s sites, I ended up with close to Manchester.
ReplyDelete(Man)chester? any normal and understandable connection
That is interesting. I would love to take that walk,
ReplyDeletearne Chester is 40 miles west of Manchester near the border with Wales.
ReplyDeleteChester means a Roman camp and indeed there are a lot of excavations going one there. Chester is one the river Dee and its roman name is DEVA
Manchester had the roman name MANCASTRIUM The "Man" bit will refer to some General or Lord and not specifically the male gender.
That's a great idea. I love Chester.
ReplyDeleteA charming city. In November I walked along the old Roman city walls in Chester as far as I could..
ReplyDeleteLove the plaque. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteGreat and interesting post:D

Very interesting,I like to walk,so I would like to be there!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, you MUST call Lisbon SOON! You will LOVE it!!!
ReplyDeleteMy M is on different trails, but I have been on paths of a similar sort ot yours today. Of course, our town is doing well to be a bit over a century--no millenium stuff here.
ReplyDeleteIf I were closer, I would be right over to walk that trail. I love historic walks!
ReplyDeleteI would love to check it out sometime.
ReplyDeleteMy mum is a Cestrian, she was born within the city walls - not many around these days as all the hospitals are outside
ReplyDeleteThat is so neat! I love guided walking tours like that (there is one in Boston): they give you a great oversight to the area before you look for the details. I have a lot of catching up with you to do!
