Providence House and Watergate Street

Heritage Open Day: Explore Watergate Street and see Roman remains, Medieval undercrofts and buildings with an array of front elevations some of which have their origins in the 17th century including Providence House. An information sheet will be your guide. The main street of the Roman fortress, later a busy trading street leading to the Port, now Watergate Street is a destination for visitors to Chester to enjoy its cafés and bars. The fabric of these premises is part of Chester’s architectural heritage.

Collect an information sheet from Providence Gin, which occupies the Medieval undercroft of Providence House, pop into some other premises, and look up at the front elevations to better understand Watergate Street’s history.
