It is said, The Roman city walls were extended to the south in the 12th century with a wall bordering the north bank of the River Dee. The original Bridgegate is recorded to have been built by the 1120s. The gate guarded the southern entrance to the town and the North Wales Road ran through this gateway after crossing the Old Dee Bridge.

Historical bridge crossing the River Dee. Good views of this bridge can be seen from the city walls where a sign is also located.

Lovely place to come and take pictures, watch over the River Dee, especially when the sun is shining. Also good to watch the wildlife around the River Dee too.

Historic local landmark, nice views around the area. PS: it's a bridge !

Nice stroll across the Old Dee Bridge at Handbridge Chester

Chester is renowned for its Roman history and the important work done by Victorian's to renovate the city.These are two of many gems to be found in this beautiful city.

Chester is absolutely beautiful! Thoroughly recommend walking the City Walls. Enjoy and explore!

An atmospheric and historical landmarks from which a good view of the riverside tourist boating area can be had.

Nice view watching the water and birds.

A 14th century stone bridge that is still very much in use today - although single lane only. One of the main attractions of Chester - nice place to see the Dee river and watch the traffic from both directions patiently wait for each other to cross the bridge.

Lovely area for a relaxing walk despite the noise from the weir and fast flowing river. An historical crossing point from England to Wales although borders have moved somewhat since then. If you're looking for a boat trip along the River Dee then this is where you'll find them. Makes for a nice short circuit walk if you walk to the Queens Park bridge across to the far bank and turn back towards Old Dee bridge.

Good place to get views of the river. And a short clean cobbled pedestrianised stretch leads back to the riverside. But that is it really. Not sure it is worth going out of your way.
