Notes on the mediaeval architecture of Chester, with special reference to the Rows and the crypts
John Hewitt
30 - 52
Article on the character of the medieval buildings of Chester. An introduction notes that very little remains of any Roman, Saxon or Norman buildings and rejects the idea of a Roman origin for the Rows. Possible reasons for their establishment are then discussed, using comparisons with elements of medieval architecture. Medieval character is then discussed further, using examples of surviving fabric and evidence from drawings of buildings that are no longer standing. The architecture of the city's medieval crypts is described, including the various methods of vaulting used. It has been suggested that at least one of the crypts had a religious purpose; this idea is rejected. LD
Notes on the history of Wallasey Church
Edward W Cox
53 - 75
Historical evidence for the origins of Wallasey and its church is discussed. Although the church suffered a catastrophic fire in 1856, the author was able to inspect the ruins immediately afterwards and later to examine all of the cut and moulded stones. From these remnants he was able to identify traces of at least five separate partial or entire rebuildings. The findings are described and a phased plan is presented, showing Norman, Transition, Edwardian and Tudor material. The church may have existed much earlier than the 11th century. LD
The traffic between Deva and the coast of North Wales, in Roman times
George W Shrubsole
76 - 90
Article on the trade of goods, particularly lead and coal, between the coast of North Wales and Chester in Roman times. Discusses evidence from river gravel deposits, timbers and Roman artefacts found in the course of excavations for infrastructure in Chester, and Roman remains recorded in Flint. LD
Description of a hoard of forty-three Roman denarii ... found at Eccleston, near Chester
W Talbot Ready
91 - 97
Lists the number of coins of each emperor or empress represented in the hoard and makes some general notes on their preservation, from which it is deduced that the coins must have been lost or hidden very shortly after 168 AD. The coins are then listed in chronological sequence with a brief description of the obverse and reverse of each. It is noted that only a few have types commemorative of historical events. LD
