There's a canal that runs across the north end of town.  Still operational (as most of them are), the locks interested me because they are all manual, self service, and the heavy lock gates are perfectly balanced so once you get them moving, you can keep them moving with one hand.











Lot's of shopping in Chester, and lots of people.  The store fronts have a minimum of 2 levels for shops.



















This is Chester at 6:30 am on a sunday morning.  I was the only one up and about.















Several buildings in Chester are of the 'Tudor' style.  These are the real thing!



















This is a detail of the building above; there were several carvings like this just about every 10 feet or so.
