#Eastgate Clock

Banks, Bridges and Rows

On a variable Wednesday, we headed down Frodsham Street onto Eastgate and left down St. John Street, where we waited for a bunch of students to shift for a better look at the Welsh church. Peeling blue railings barred the three-arched doorway, atypically clad in yellow sandstone. At the end of the street, we crossed to the amphitheatre to see small kids being drilled as Roman soldiers.

Took this photo earlier today, and I just love how it turned out! My phone may be a few years old now, but it can still take some decent photos at night.

Fun fact, the Eastgate Clock in Chester is said to be the second most photographed clock in the UK, after Big Ben.

A little trip to Wales? Don't mind if I do~

After a nice night out in Liverpool we put on our hiking boots and set out on a medieval day in magical Wales.

Whenever I think of Wales I think of dragons, castles, and wide fields. Lucky for me, that's exactly what I found. Our first stop took us to Conwy Castle. Now when you think of old run-down castle that could possibly house a dragon, Conwy is exactly what comes to mind. During its time as an active castle, Conwy stood to fortify the next-door Conwy but it never really got used as a place of residence. Despite being a run-down castle its forward bridge still gets some use out of it after being transformed into a suspension bridge in the early 19th century.

A twenty-minute ride away was the town of Llandudno, the home of the writer of the Alice in Wonderland stories. This quaint seaside town feels as if it's straight out of a postcard. Its colorful buildings seafront building and never-ending pier. We took the hike up the Great Orme, and the view was absolutely breathtaking. The whole time I was up there it felt as if I was in Thor Ragnarok, watching as Odin went off to Valhalla. While admiring the view I met a little dragon that would let me take him home, far away from his magical lands.

The following day we would visit another medieval town named Chester. Chester was initially constructed as a fort known as Deva by the Romans in 79 AD. Spread around the town you can still find relics from its Medieval timeline including the Roman Amphitheater, the Chester Cathedral, and a more recent addition to the town, the Eastgate Clock (built for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee). While in the town, my flatmates and I hit for the waters and went around on a peddle boat. It was relaxing to lay back as the ducks swam past us, but it was also exhilarating to race the other boat riders.

Chester

Ez az a hely, ahova mindenképpen el kell menni egyszer. Mint egy kis ékszerdoboz. Ide kicsit hosszabb volt az eljutás, mert Keele-ből busszal utaztunk Crewe-ba, ahol vonatra szálltunk át és úgy érkeztünk meg Chesterbe. Mi novemberben jártunk ott, és abszolút meghozza a karácsonyi hangulatot. Gyönyörű utcái vannak, teli üzletekkel és kávézókkal. Mintha egy filmbe csöppennél hirtelen. A régi megmaradt városfalon lehet sétálni, és a legismertebb látványossága az Eastgate Clock. Azonban a város közepén található egy katedrális, ami szintén lélegzetelállító.

Return To Splendour (Chester City Walls)

Considering the 2023 trip less than optimal due to weather, travel and health issues, we returned to Chester mid-March 2024. Tuesday started sunny and forecast to be the best of the week (with no snow) we circumnavigated the city walls. From the rented house two street up from last year’s stay, we crossed the ring road, lingered to admire the painterly canal, bought pasties on Frodsham Street and…

Eastgate, Chester by Tony Via Flickr: Eastgate clock may be one of the most recognisable icons of Chester. The present gateway dates from 1768 and is the third gate on this site. In 1899 a clock was added to the top of the gateway to celebrate the diamond jubilee of Queen Victoria two years earlier.
