- From the Roman ruins to the Rows (1931)
Was King Harold smuggled up here to die after the Battle of Hastings? Did King Edgar build a palace here in the 10th century?

I live here and was born here, and I just lost my MIND pointing out all the places I go daily. Most of it hasn't changed. How gorgeous.
Beautiful city. Proud to be a Cestrian!
My City, Born and Raised, Still live here now ❤
Not much has changed. love going to Chester and down to the river.
A priceless historical document of this wonderful town - one of my favourites. Very tastefully colourised, and tremendouslly nostalgic
Brilliant watching where I live all them years ago thank you so much il show grandchildren
Hardly changed in all these decades. I work there. Love the city and its people.
Not sure what's more depressing, that i'm not alive there or how it looks today
Nearly 100 years now and nothing’s changed. Thanks for sharing
Nearly 100 years on and they are still debating about excavation of the amphitheater because of a building built around the time of this film!! How frustrating, it’s my city and that of my fathers and grandfathers but we take it for granted until it’s too late and gone, please excavate the amphitheater and put Chester back on the map for the best of reasons.
Great film, thanks for posting it.
Moved over when i was 22 and lived there for 20 years, a beautiful city full of history ❤ gutted i left 😢
What a great find. Thanks so much.
I miss Chester. I spent a good part of my childhood growing up in Boughton Heath in the 60/70s.
It's very much the same really.
This is a wonderful video. Thank you for posting. It's fabulous to see this old footage.
What a treat.Thank you.
Absolutely stunning! So very beautiful.
I had a penpal (one of many) in the late 80s/early 90s who lived in Chester 😊
poor things, just starting years of the Depression, then years of World War 2
How wonderful to see this and the narrators accent too. These are fascinating to watch .
Brilliant footage not seen this clip before.
The city of balconies!
Beautiful city ! .... Is it still this beautiful today ?
not as much, but still good to visit
Lots of bars along the canal and properties n outdoor drinkers in the evenings during the summer. The noise of all the chatter is deafening. pov. @@westaussie965
What a great video this is
That was great 👍
Amazing
Been telling that tale about Harold for years...no one believes me.
I'm afraid the tale is just a tale. That Anchorite Cell was built in 1363
5:00 What's that shelter above the Roman shrine of Minerva? It isn't there now. Interesting that they emphasise King Edgar, the Anglo Saxon. He had his semi-mythical crowning, nearby, on the River Dee.
Sad that one of the richest men in the country and still is, couldn’t maintain that mansion and it was demolished and replaced by an ugly modern mansion.
After all that, where is the Cheshire Cat?
Seriously. Why is this video using the American spelling of colourised?
Who cares??
Well, I do!
@@chinstealer848yup people like you just give up our culture then when you hit 60’whine about’i remember when’.
This video was colorized in the USA 🇺🇸
What did they fight for?
Where they held king Jesus/Arthur in exile after losing the Jewish revolt of 70ad in exchange for his star prophesy as Vespasian was a commoner and needed it to become emperor.
And did those feet in ancient times walk upon England's mountains green...
How many Jews were there (in Chester) then? I've never heard of that.
It a shit hole not like 70 a nd 80 lived all my life
great piece of history
Amazing
