Few places in the kingdom presentto the antiquary attractions of more varied characterthan this ancient city: it is rich in memorable incidentsand assodations, and has a history chronicled not onlyin books, but in its walls, ecclesiastical and other buildings,its unique " rows " and other venerable remains.Chester may not improbably have been a very earlyIberian or British town, and it most certainly was an importantBoman station: the general plan of the cityand the arrangement of the prindpal streets—answeringin some measure to a Roman camp—bear witness to itsRoman origin: to the Roman geographers it was knownas " Deva," or the station on the Dee, where, according tothe Antonine Itinerary, was the station from A.D- 61 ofthe 20th Legion (Valeria Victrix), and this seems to beconfirmed by the name " Caer Leon Gawr,"' or the " cityof the great legion," assigned to it by the British; thisview is further strengthened by the discovery here ofvotive altars and sculptured tonibstones, the inscriptionson which show that they were erected by officers andother's belonging to Roman legions, besides which manyand various other Roman remains have been met with atdifferent periods. The 20th Legion quitted Deva aboutA.D. 406; and it then reverted to the Britons, f 1 om whomit was taken in 607 by Ethelfrith the Fierce, King ofNorthumbria; the Britons, however, regained possession,and continued to hold the place till they were dispossessedin 828-30 by Egbert, who, as sole monarch, added Legancester,as it was caUed by the Saxons, to his otherdominions; in 894 it was taken and ravaged by the Danes,and on their retreat, the city walls were rebuilt, aboutgo8, by Ethelfleda, Countess of Mercia; but after herdeath, the Britons once more became its masters, onlyto be again expeUed by Edward the Elder : in the summerof 973, Edgar received on the Dee the homage of variousinferior Saxon sovereigns, and according to some writers,was rowed from his palace on the south bank of rhe riverto the conventual church of St. John by eight tributarykings: on the division of the country in 1016 betweenEdmund Ironside and Canute, Chester, as part of Mercia,was retained by the latter. Under the Normans Chesterincreased considerably in importance, and after the Conquest,the Earldom of Chester (county) was conferred onGeorbodus, a nobleman of Flanders, who, however, nevertook possession of his territory, and, returning to theContinent, died soon after, upon which the dignity wasbestowed by the Conqueror, in 1070, upon his haUsister'sson, Hugh de Abrincis (or Avranches), surnamed"Lupus," who had his residence and held his courts andparliaments here, to which he summoned the barons andlandowners of the shire; this powerful and wealthy nobleeventually died as a monk in the abbey of St. Werburgh,at Chester, 27 July, iioiiand on the death in Dec, iiigof his son Richard, 2nd earl, the male Une then becomingextinct, the earldom passed to his ist cousin, Ranulphde Meschines, son of Balph de Meschines, who hadmarried Maud de Abiincis, sister of Earl Hugh Lupus:Ritoulph or Ralph de Mesdiines, 4th Earl of Chester of this ,family, and sumamed "BlundevU," died at WaUingford, '26 Oct. 1232, and the earldom then devolved upon his jnephew, John le Scot, as "Earl Palatine," at whosedecease, by poison, in 1244, the male Une again failed, |and in 1246, the Earldom of Chester was for ever annexed |to the Cirown by Henry IH. and the title has since that jtime "excepting the short period 1264-5, when possession ,thereof was obtained by the rebellious Simon de Montfort," jbeen bome only by the heir apparent of the sovereign:by the Act 21 Rich, II. c, 9 (1398) the earldom of Chesterwag erected into a PrincipaUty, and although this Actwas annulled by the Act i Hen. IV. c. 3, the earldomof Chester has ever since been granted in conjunction |with the Principality of Wales, and H.M. King GeorgeV. thus received both titles gth Nov. 1901. The cjtysuffered severely during the sanguinary period of theWars of the Roses, and was on one occasion (in 1455)visited by Margaret of Anjou, the warlike queen ofHenry VI. King James I. on his journey into Scotlandin 1617 passed through Chester, and received from themayor the city sword, which, being re-delivered to him,was borne by the mayor on horseback before the king. Onthe breaking out of the Civil War, the city was in 1642the head quarters of the RoyaUsts in this locality ; and in1645, under the governorship of John, ist Lord Byron, anda distinguished cavalier, withstood, under great privations,the attacks of Sir William Brereton; tbe king thereuponcame to its relief (22 Sep. 1645), ^°* *^® royal forcesbeing defeated on Rowton Heath, 2 miles from the city,on the 24th, the king, after remaining one night, retiredto Denbigh, and the place was eventuaUy surrendered 3Feb. 1646. In Aug. 1659, Sir George Booth and SirThomas Middleton surprised and took it, but were defeatednear Nantwich by General Lambert, who then advancedupon and recaptured Chester; tihe city was visitedby James II. in 1687, and on the rebellion of 1688, wasseized by Lords Molyneux and Aston in the royal interest,but the speedy abdication of James rendered their effortsuseless: under WiUiam III. Chester was appointed oneof six places for the assay of gold and silver, and thisprivilege is still retained; in the Jacobite rising in 174=:,it was fortified and garrisoned against the Pretender, thisbeing the last important military event in its history,but it is still a ohief miUtary centre. On the n and 12Feb. 1867, the castle was threatened by attack by theFenians, whose intentions, however, were rendered futileby the activity of the authorities. The Exchange andTown Hall, burnt down 30 Dec. 1862, were reopened byHis late Majesty King Edward VII. then Earl ofChester, 15 Oct. 1869.Chester is entirely surrounded by waUs, which areamong the most perfect examples of such fortificationsto be found in the kingdom: they are built ot soft freestoneand are nearly two mUes in circumference, varyingfrom about 12 to 40 feet in height, with a paved walkon the top, of sufficient width in the narrowest part toadmit of two persons walking abreast, thus affording abeautiful promenade, in the circuit of which a varietyof pleasing prospects are presented to the eye, includingthe Roodee, or race-course, the river Dee and Peckfortonand Beeston Castles and the mountains of Flintshireand Denbighshire: the waUs are said to havebeen rebuUt and their circuit enlarged by Ethelredand Ethelfieda, Earl and Countess of Mercia, aboutthe year 908, and they still have, besides posterns,.four principal gates, viz. East gate, North gate. Bridgegate and Water gate. East gate consists of a singlelofty arch for the passage of carriages, and two posternsfor foot passengers : it was built in 1769, on thesite of the ancient gate, at the expense of Richard,ist Baron Grosvenor, whose arms, with those of thecity, occupy the centre of the archway. North gate,a similar structure, formerly served as the city prison,and was in the charge and keeping of the sheriffs.Bridge gate, which has also a central arch and twoposterns, was erected in 1782, at the expense ot theCorporation and had formerly an octagonal tower,V\^ater gate, built of local red sandstone, painted toimitate freestone, was built in 1788, on the site of theancient Water gate, the expenses being defrayed out ofthe Murage duties, and it acquired its name from thefact that the tide once flowed up to this spot. Theprincipal postern gates were Kail yard. New gate (formerlycalled Wolf gate) and Ship gate.The walls were formerly defended by various towers;the New Tower, sometimes called the Water Tower,projecting from the waUs towards the Dee and twentyfourfeet in height, was buUt in 13^2, at the expense ofthe citizens; large iron rings were attached to thistower, to which vessels were fastened which came upto this point before the harbour became choked withsand: a thoroughfare tower, leading to the WaterTower, was anciently called Bonewaldesthome Tower.The Phoenix Tower,' from which Charles I. witnessedthe defeat of his army, commanded by Sir MarmadukeLangdale, at Eowton Moor (24 Sept. 1645), by the Parliamentaryforces, under Sir WiUiam Brereton and Col,Poyntz, takes its name from the crest of the Paintersand Stainers, who, with other companies, held theirmeetings in this tower: it was formerly caUed NewtonTower; there were, besides these.

[KELLY'Sonly a portion remains, and the Saddler's Tower, whichstood near the Cathedral, but was taken down in 1780,The city consists principally of four streets, excavatedout of the soUd rock and diverging at right angles tothe cardinal points from a centre, where formerly stooda stone cross, called the High Cross, pulled down in1646, after the city had fallen into the hands of theParliamentary army, but a portion of tbe structure isstill preserved in the Grosvenor Museum ; the first floorsof the houses on both sides at an average height ofabout 10 feet above the level of the carriage-way, arecontinuously open to the street, and form the famous" Rows," which are a species of elevated corridors orambulatories with shops at the back, affording a shelteredpromenade for foot passengers over the shopsbelow and communicating with the streets by flightsof steps placed at intervals: in the "Rows'" and elsewherewithin the city walh there are stUl extant manyhighly interesting examples of the timber-framed andplaster houses peculiar to this county, and some ofthese are richly ornamented with carved work andpargeting: " God's Providence House," in Watergate«t-eet, dated 1652, and reconstructed in 1862, taktes itsname from the motto, " God's providence is mine inheritance,"carved on one of the exterior beams, and said to havebeen thus inscribed by a former tenant who escaped theplague, which had visited almost every other house inthe city: the house of Bishop Lloyd (1615) and that ofthe Stanley family (1591) are also in this street: anotherfine example is the Bear and Billet inn, in Bridge street,which thoroughfare also affords several other quaintspecimens of this style: the streets are paved with stoneand lighted with gas from works in Paradise row, near theRoodee, originally erected in 1818 in Cuppin street, bythe Chester Gas Light Company, amalgamated in 1856with the Eoodee Gas Company, under the name of TheChester United Gas Company and also by electric lightsupplied by the corporation from their new works inMiddle Crane street. The water supply is derived fromworks at Barrell WeU and Spitalfield walk, the propertyof the Chester Water Works Company, whose offices arein Newgate street.Chester is amply provided with railway communicationand has three stations. The general station at thetop of City road, into which the trains of the GreatWestern and London and North Western companiesrun, is the joint property of these two companies; there-are 8 platforms, the two longest being 520 yards eachin length; two others, known as the Island platformsand erected in 1890, are each 340 yards long; in 1890various improvements were carried out. including theextension ot the glazed iron roof, so as to cover thewhole of the platforms.The station of the <strong>Cheshire</strong> Lines Committee, in Victoriaroad, called " Northgate station," was opened fortraffic in 1875, and has two platforms each 100 yardslong; the whole is covered by a light iron framed andglazed roof.The Great Central Eailway (late Manchester, Sheffieldand Lincolnshire) station in Liverpool road was openedin 1890 and a branch line has since been made from thisstation to Hawarden, affording communication with Wrexham,and a line has been constructed so as to connectGbe.ster -with the Cambrian railways and South Wales withBiTkenhend, Hoylake and Seacombe.The city is a seaport and under the Act of 1846 itslimits were declared to be from the eastern end of thebridge to Red Stones, at Hoylake, to the Voryd or Clwydriver, and along the seashore and western side of the Dee,to the westem end of the bridge, including the riversDee and Voryd : fishing boats and their implements tobe distinguished by the letters CH.; the river Dee hasbeen canalized from the city to Connah's quay at itsestuary, which expands to a considerable width.The Old Bridge over the Dee, at the Bridge gate, consistingof seven irregular arches, is of considerable antiquity,but has been rebuUt and repaired at differenttimes: the ancient gates, which formerly stood one ateach end, were taken down, one in 1782 and the otherin 1784.Grosvenor Bridge, which crosses the Dee near theracecourse, was erected at a cost of ;^36,ooo, from designsby Mr. Thomas Harrison, architect, and is astructure of freestone, consisting of one arch, with aspan of 200 feet; the- height from the springing line is40 feet, the length of the roadway 340 feet and width35^ feet: it was formally opened by Her late MajestyQueen Victoria (then Princess Victoria), upon theoccasion of her visiting Eaton Hall in 1832.The Suspension Bridge crossing the Dee, a light andhandsome structure, leads to the suburb called "Queen'sPark,"At the time of the Conquest Chester ranked as aMerchant Guild, and the chief citizens assembled inguild to make laws for their guidance and protection;charters of privUeges were granted to the city by thesuccessive Norman earls, and these were confirmed andenlarged by Hen, II. and John, and Hen. III. in 1242constituted the chief magistrate mayor: Henry VII. bycharter, in 1506, made the city of Chester a county in 'itself, and granted to the mayor and corporation jurisdictionover the river Dee, from Heron Bridge toArnold's Eye: during the Commonwealth the city,wasdeprived of its privileges as a separate county, and theCorporation dissolved 17 Sept. 1659; but in 1664,Charles II. confirmed the grant and charter of HenryVII. and the Corporation continued to be elected underthe charter of Charles II. untU the passing of the" Municipal Corporations Act. 1835'' (5 and 6 Wm.IV. c 76), by which the city was divided into fivewards, each returning 6 councillors; and the Corporationnow consists, under this Act, and the later Actof 1882 (45 and 46 Vict, c 50), of a mayor, sheriff,ten aldermen and thirty councillors, who also, act asthe Urban Sanitary Authority; by the Local GovernmentBoard's Chester Order 1898 certain alterationsof boundaries were made in connection with ChesterCastle parish and the township of Blacon. The cityhas a commission of the Peace and separate court ofQuarter Sessions and a police force, and ancient Courtsof Record caUed the " Court of Pentice " and the "Courtof Portmote." Under the "Local Government Act, 1888,"Chester is declared a " county borough," for certain purposesof that Act.Chester returned two members to Parliament fromthe ist year of Queen Mary (1553), the elective franchisebeing vested in the freemen and householders; butunder the " Redistribution of Seats Act, 1885,'' therepresentation was reduced to one member, the franchisehaving been previously extended in accordance with the"Representation of the People Act, 1867" (30 and 31Vict. c. 102).The city arms:—"England, dimidiating az. 3 garbs,or," are probably at least as old as 1283, and were confirmedby WUliam Flower, Norroy, 3 Sept. 1580, with crestand supporters ; but in the 17th and i8th century, the coat—" az. 3 garbs, or," surmounted by a sword in palewasused.The see of Chester, originated in 1075, when Peter,34th bishop of Lichfield, removed the seat of his dioceseto this city, with the church of St, John the Baptistas a cathedral, thus occasioning his successors to befrequently styled bishops of Chester, although the nextbishop, Eobert de Lindsey, prebend of St. Paul's, translatedthe head of the see to Coventry, where it remainedtiU about 1086, when Hugh Novant, prior ofthe Carthusians, re-established it at Lichfield. Chester,however, was not created a distinct and separate seeuntil 1541, when it was chosen as one of the six newbishoprics made by Henry VIII. and the church of theBenedictine abbey of St. Werburg, founded in 1053 byHugh Lupus, Earl of Chester, was assigned as thecathedral church and re-dedicated to Christ and theBlessed Virgin. The diocese now consists of the entirecounty of Chester, except parts of the parishes ofThreapwood and Whitchurch, and part of Mottram inLongdendale, and it also includes portions of theparishes of Doddleston, Hawarden, and Malpas, in Flintshire,of Ashton-under-Lyne, in Lancashire, and ofBarthomley, in Staffordshire. There are two archdeaconries(Chester and Macclesfield), 12 rural deaneries,and 265 benefices. The revenue of the see, which in1824 was only ^^1,700 a year, was increased by theEcclesiastical Commissioners to ;^4,20o.Among the Bishops of Chester may be mentioned JohnBird, appointed to the see on its creation in 1541; I16had been a monk of the Carmelite order, and sometimeabbot of Chester, suffragan bishop of Penrith, in i537'and bishop of Bangor in 1539; in 1553-4 he was deprivedby Mary for having married, but afterwardsconforming, was employed as suffragan to BishopBonner of London; he died in 1558. George Coates,his successor (1554-6), was master of Balliol College,Oxford, 1539-45; Thomas Morton (1616-19), and afterwardsof Durham, was the author of the " Book ofSports; " Brian Walton (1660-1), was the editor ofthe " Hexapla Polyglot Bible," and died 29 Nov. 1661;John Wilkins (1668-72), an astronomer and one of thefounders of the Royal Society; John Pearson (1673-80),author of " An Exposition of the Creed; " Sir WUliamDawes, bart.

The 'Right Rev 'PrasJohn Jayne D.D. 33rd and present Bishop of Ohesterformerly fellow of Jesus College, Oxford, principal ofSt. David's CoUege, Lampeter, and vicar of Leeds, wasconsecrated in 1889.The Cathedral church of St. Werburgh, originally thechurch of the Benedictine abbey, but on the foundation ofthe bishopric of Chester by Henry VIII. renamed as theCathedral church of Christ and the Blessed Virgin Maryin Chester, is a cruciform stmcture of red sandstone invarious styles from Early Norman to Late Perpendicular,and consists of nave of seven bays, with aisles and south'porch; choir of five bays, with aisles and south-east•chapel; an eastern lady-chapel of three bays, small north•transept of one bay, with eastern chapel; south transeptof five bays, with aisles; an incomplete south-west tower,and a central embattled tower, 127 feet high, with•octagonal battlemented turrets at the angles, and crocketedpinnacles between these; the belfry has two canopied windowsin each face, and contains a clock with chimes andeight heUs. On the north side of the nave are the abbey•cloisters, no feet square ; the eastern alley opens into avestibule, leading to the chapter house, and near this onthe north are stairs, once leading to the dormitory, and tothe east a vaulted cellar; the refectory occupies almostthe whole of the north walk, and on the west side is along low vaulted undercroft of Early Norman date. TheCathedral is so much shut in by buildings that a reaUygood general view is unobtainable, but the best prospectis afforded by the city waU, which closely adjoins theCathedral yard on the east. The eastern portion of thefabric is aknost entirely Early EngUsh, the remainder isDecorated, with additions and alterations made duringthe Perpendicular period. The west front, flanked byoctagonal banded turrets, is wholly filled vrith a Perpendicularwindow, richly traceried; the space below is•occupied by an embattled screen, with a central doorway,on either side of which are three canopied niches; thebasement of the south-west tower, along the face ofwhich the banding of the turret is carried, has a Perpendicularwindow, with a canopied niche on eitherside; the interior eerves as a consistory court. Thesouth porch, which abuts on this tower, has a parvise•chamber above it. The cathedral has generally piercedparapets, but the south transept and its aisles areembattled, and the east end of the choir is stronglymarked by two octagonal turrets, with tall crocketedepirelets; the stone roof of the south-eastern apse,restored from exi.sting records, and rising to a height ofabout 40 feet, is also a very striking feature; the eastend of the lady chapel is finished with buttresses surmountedby canopied pinnacles.The nave is 145 feet long, and, with the aisles, 75feet wide, and has a height of 73 feet; its arcades areDecorated, of rather plain character, but the stage aboveis wholly Perpendicular, with a lofty window in eachbay, and serves both as triforium and clerestory; thenave is seated with open benches and chairs, and at the•east end are raised seats, arranged longitudinally, forthe chdr; the pulpit, designed by Mr. R. C Hussey, and*he eagle lectern were removed from the choir; thenave was first used for divine service on Advent Sunday,1867; the aisles were also modified during the Perpendicularperiod, but the lower part of the wall of thenorth aisle is Norman work; the interior wall of thisaisle has been adorned with marble mosaics, the gift ofMrs. Piatt, of Stalybridge, who died in 1888; the work,finished in i8go, represents scenes from the Old Testamenthistory, designed by Mr. Clayton, jun. and executedby Mr. Burke, of Newman street, London; thestained windows above were presented in 1890 by H.Higgins esq. of Hereford. The present baptistery, formedout of an ancient Norman chamber at the north-westangle of the nave, was dedicated by the late bishop ofChester, g Oct. 1885; the fiooring has been laid downwith mosaics, illustrating the "Miraculous Draught ofFishes,'' surrounded by a series of heads, emblematic ofChristian virtues; the ancient and beautiful font ofItalian marble was presented by Lord Egerton ofTatton. The small north transept is now partiaUy occupiediby the organ loft, which is a beautiful work of stoneand marble supported on sixteen marble columns, andwag erected at a cost of ;^2,40o, entirely defrayed bythe Duke of Westminster, The organ, formerly placedabove the choir screen, was removed to this transept.which has an ornamental oak roof supported In- angdsholding emblems of tbe Crucifixion, and the arms ofCardinal Wolsey also appear prominently on the beams;a new organ was provided in 1910, most of the pipes ofthe old organ being utilized, after being revoiced; thereare 51 .speaking stops and 25 couplers, four manualsand fvvo pedals ; the wind is supplied by a kinetic fanworked by eltectricity and placed in a room in thenorth transept triforium; the whole of the choirorgan is placed in the south choir aisle and played byelectric pneumatic action. The south transept wasassigned, in the 14th century, as the parish churchot St. Oswald's parish, and so continued to be useduntil 1881, when the church of St, Thomas was givento this parish in Ueu of this transept: it is 78 feet4 inches long by 77 feet wide, including the aisles, andin its architectural character resembles the nave; thescreen waU erected across the transept, in 1828, byDean Copleston, has been entirely removed; the stainedwindow at the south end of the transept was the giftin 1885 of Lord Egerton of Tatton, in memory of hisfather, WUHam Tatton, ist Baron Egerton of Tatton,who died 24 Feb, 1883; on the east side of the transeptis a stained window given in 1890 by Mrs. A. Potts, ofHoole HaU, in memory of her father and her husband.On tbe south wall hang the old coloura of the 22nd(<strong>Cheshire</strong>) Regiment, carried at the storming of Quebec,September 13th, 1759. The interior of this transept hasbeen restored at a cost of about _^io,ooo, under the directionof Messrs. Blomfield 4 Son, architects, as a memorialto the late Duke of Westminster KG. who died Dec.22nd, 1899; the stone groining of the western aisle andthe oak groining of the central aisle being new. Therestoration of the exterior was completed in 1910 fromtbe designs of Mr. GUbert Scott, in tbe 14th centurystyle, consisting of three pinnacles with tracery workand an arched doorway.The choir screen, originally a Decorated work of the14th century, was subjected to some modifications duringthe restorations in 1844, and also at a later date, onthe removal of the organ to the north transept; it is alight and elegant structure, the lower portion consistingof open traceried arcading, with a central entrance closedby ornamental gates, presented in 1876 by Mr. HarmoodBanner, of Liverpool; the upper stage is of similar openwork, rising into slender crocketed pinnacles, and on thochoir side is richly canopied, and has four tabernacledstalls on either side the doorway. The choir is, architecturally,much more impressive than the nave; thetwo eastern bays are Early EngUsh, but the westemportion belongs to the period of transition from thatstyle to the Decorated; the main arcade is lofty, supportinga triforium of four trefoiled arches in each bay,and round-headed recesses at the back; the clerestoryconsists of a single lofty window in each bay, filled withdebased tracery; the east end of the choir is piercedby an arch of the same height as those of the arcades,and opening into the lady-chapel, and above it is awindow filled with geometrical tracery. The formerplaster roof has been entirely removed and replaced bya new roof of oak, at a cost of ;£'2,5oo, defrayed by thelate Thomas Piatt esq. J.P. of Dunham Hall; the roofis richly decorated in gold and colour, and painted withvarious subjects, including figures of the sixteen OldTestament prophets. The pavement of the choir hasbeen relaid, in part with the old marble slabs, intermixedwith new tile-work, and the sacrarium withmarble bearing incised representations ot subjects illustratingthe " Passion." The stalls, forty-eight innumber, belong to the 15th century: the canopied workis peculiarly fine, and there are misereres or subselUa ofthe same date; at the east end of the southern rangeof stalls is the bishop's throne, executed by Messrs.Farmer and Brindley, and erected in 1876. Thesacrarium is inclosed by railings, presented by the lateJohn Torr esq. M.P. for Liverpool, who died in 1880.The communion table, given by the late Very Rev. JohnSaul Howson D.D. dean of Chester 1867-86, is made ofportions of oak, olive-wood and cedar, all obtained fromPalestine by Henry Lee esq. J.P. ot Sedgeley Park, andpresented by him for this purpose in 1876; over thetable is a handsome reredos, adorned with a picture inmosaics, executed at Venice, of " the Last Supper." Thefour Decorated sediKa, originaUy in the church of St.John the Baptist, and restored by the Freemasons at acost of ;^45o, are in two stages, -with two seats in each;their canopies, which had been much mutilated, havefigures of monkeys and other grotesques, as weU aspedestals for figures: on the opposite side are two fineaumbries, also Decorated.

The choir lectern waspresented in 1873 by the late Miss Potts, of Chester, whodied in 1876; tihe pavement on which it was intended tobe placed has on it incised representations in marbleof the heads of the twelve apostles: at the angles arefigures of St. Chrysostom, St. Augustine, St. Athanasiusand St. Ambrose. In the Norman church, the choiraisles, as weU as the choir itseU, terminated in apses,the outUnes of which have been marked on the pavementof the choir, but on the conversion of the east endin the Early English period, the aisles were prolongedconsiderably eastward, and made to terminate in apsidalohapels of semi-hexagonal form; towards the end of the15th century these chapels were in turn destroyed, andthe aisles again extended eastward for almost the entirelength of the lady-chapel, in the walls of which openingswere made, but during the restorations subsequent to1873, this Perpendicular work was entirely removed onthe south side but retained on the north. At the sametime the Early English windows were restored in thelady-chapel, which is now in its original form. The southchoir aisle has thus at its eastern extremity an apsidalchapel, as designed by the Early English builders, and issurmounted by a curious spire-Uke roof. This chapel wasrestored by the Brassey family in memory of their father.Each aisle is vaulted, and retains a piscina, and has westerngates, presented in 1876 by the late Duke of WestminsterK.G.; the south aisle has also on the south sidetwo sepulchral recesses, each containing a stone coffin, andat the upper end a coffin-shaped altar-tomb, the sides ofwhich are panelled in quatrefoils, with small paintedfigures of kings and bishops between the panels: in thenorth aisle is a monument, designed by Messrs. Kelly andEdwards, architects, of Chester, to Dr. John Graham,bishop of Chesiter 1848-65, and at its western end is asmall chapel of the 12th century, with a curious low sedileand itraces of an altar.The lady-chapel, restored as stated above, has an eastwindow of five graduated lancets, designed by the lateSir Gilbert Scott B.A. and filled with stained glass.The elaborate decoration of the roof was executed byMr. Octavius Hudson, in part from traces still remaining,and occupied about five years; the reredos of glassmosaic, designed by the late Sir A. W. Blomfield kt.A.E.A., F.S.A. (d. 1899) occupies the whole of the spacebelow the window; the centre panel above the holytable represents the " Nativity," and on either side areother panels, arranged horizontally one above the other,with similarly wrought pictures of the " Salutation,"the " Annunciation," the " Adoration of the Wise Men,"and the " Flight into Egypt; " there are sedilia and apiscina; the flooring is of marble and tiles, and on thenorth side is a memorial to the Ven. Francis WranghamM.A. prebendary of Chester and archdeacon of the EastBiding, d. 1842. The shrine of St. Werburgh, or ratherits lower portion, which from the foundation of the seeup to 1876 served as the episcopal throne, was in 1890replaced on its original site under the arch betweenthe choir and lady-chapel; the structure was, however,so greatly altered at its restoration in 1846 by CanonSlade, that the ancient design could not be completelyrecovered; the original work is Early Decorated of the13th century, and includes several small gilt figures,presumed to represent various Mercian sovereigns.The other monuments in the cathedral include a finemodern altar-tomb, with effigy, to Bishop Pearson (1673-86): at the feet of the effigy are figures of angels; thesides of the tomb are ornamented with heads of thetwelve apostles and sentences from the Creed; abovethe effigy rises a canopy of wrought metal work, inlaidwith coloured marbles and precious stones; there arealso memorials to William Smith D.D. dean of Chester,d. 12 Jan. 1787; Samuel Peploe D.D. bishop of Chester,1726-52; and Capt. John Moore Napier, 62nd Foot, d.in Scinde, 7 July, 1846, with epitaph by Lieut.-Gen.Sir Charles James Napier G.C.B. The ancient stainedglass was almost wholly destroyed by a mob during thevisit of the Duke of Monmouth to the city in 1683; themodem glass comprises the east windows of tbe choirand lady-chapel, the whole of the windows in the choiraisles, and others, some of these being memorials to theAnson, Hughes, Humberstone, and Bichards families.The restoration of the choir of the cathedral wasbegun in 1844 by Dean Anson, and carried out underthe superintendence of Mr. R. C. Hussey, architect. In1855 the lady-chapel was partly restored by the chapter,and decorated at the expense of Mrs. Hamilton, of HooleLodge. At the beginning of 1868 the nave was fittedup by the chapter for divine service, at a cost of ^^1,500,and in March of the same year, at the instance and bythe exertions of Dean Howson, the general restorationof the fabric was set on foot, and large sums were atonce subscribed, including ;^io,ooo by the EcclesiasticalCommissioners: the work was begun in the summer of1868, under the direction of the late Sir G. GilbertScott B.A. and continued after his death by the lateSir Arthur W. Blomfield M.A., A.R.A. and since 1873upwards of ;^ioo,ooo has been expended in repairs anddecoration. The cathedral registers date from 1687.The cloisters, with the exception of the south wall, rebmltduring tiie later restoration of z868 and Mowingyears, are 15th century Perpendicular; the destroyedsonth walk was furnished -with carols or small squareinclosures for studies, and five such studies stiU exist atthe south end of the westem alley; in the -wall of thesouth walk, next the north aisle of the nave, are sixsemicircular recessed Norman arches, probably indicatingthe burial places of abbots, or as some think recessesfor book shelves; and at either end is a Norman doosvway opening into the aisle; in the western alley aretwo other Norman doorways, one of which admits to thelong vaulted chamber forming this side of the cloisters;it is of Early Norman date, 105 feet long by 40 wide,with a row of five circular vaulting piers down thecentre, and was once divided by wooden partitions; itspurpose and that of the building once existing above ittappears to be at present undetermined. On the northside of the cloisters is the refectory, 90 by 34 feet, mioriginally Early English, but altered during the Perpendicularperiod; the oak roof was removwl in 1804,but there remains a very beautiful Early English muralpulpit with open arcaded staircase; the estonoe froniithe cloister and the arches above the lavatory, both ofthis period, also exist, bift have been interrupted by thelater Perpendicular vaulting, and a corbel on the eastside of the doorway exhibits the royal arms of HenryVU, In the eastern alley of the cloisters is an Earli^English vestibule, 30 by 27 feet, divided by columns intothree aisles, and leading to the chapter house, a very fineexample of Early EngUsh (1142-8), 50 feet long by 26wide and 35 feet high; it is vaulted in three bays, andhas at the east end five graduated lights; the chapterlibrary, kept here, includes a MS, Bible of the 12thcentury; at the east end of the alley are stairs formerlyleading to the dormitory, and beyond these on the easta vaulted cellar.Holy Trinity church, in Watergate street, a buUding ofred sandstone, in the Decorated Middle Pointed style,was entirely rebuilt in 1869, at a cost of ;£io,ooo, underthe direction of Mr. William Kelly, architect, ot Ohester,and consists of a chancel, clerestoried nave of three baysandaisles and a western tower with pinnacles and spirecontaining 6 bells.

Sir Ralph Vemon, who lived to theextraordinary age of 150 years, as appears by variouslaw proceedings bearing on the estates, in whichand in the pedigrees of the family he is styled " theold " and the " old Uver," and he was one of the witnessesin the famous Scrope and Grosvenor controversy, in thereign of Richard II. This Ralph married, first, Mary,daughter of Lord Dacre, and secondly, Maude Grosvenor,widow of John Hatton, who on one side is described ashis second wife and on the other as his concubine; inthe year 1325 he made a settlement, upon the marriageof Sir Ralph, his grandson, with Agnes, daughter ofRichard Damory: by this deed, in the event of failureof male issue from Sir Ralph and Agnes, the Vernonestates were settled upon Richard, eldest son of theabove mentioned Sir Ralph " the old," by Maude Grosvenor,passing by Thomas, a younger son by LordDacre's daughter, whose descendant. James Vernon, sometime afterwards contested the vaUdity of the deed, andafter considerable Utigation appears to have effected ^compromise. At a sub.sequent date, a moiety of thebarony, -with the manor of Shipbrook, was transferredin marriage to the Savage family, and in the early partof the last century these were purchased by RichardVernon esq. who procured an Act of ParUament in 1764for the sile of this estate, which he disposed of to Mr.Tomkinson, of Liverpool, from whom it was purchasedby William Harper esq. in 1790, Colonel C H. France-H-iyhurst, of Bostock Hall, is the present lord of themanor and sole proprietor. Shipbrook Hall is now afarmhouse.
