Britain's What's On Event Guide
Bishop Lloyd's Palace - Open
Heritage Open Day: Visit this late Tudor town house with Arts and Crafts modifications, now home of Chester Civic Trust. Here we have two late Tudor timber framed houses. In the Jacobean period, upper chambers were created in both with ornate plaster ceilings. Externally, remarkable carvings were used to embellish one of the buildings and emphasise its importance. The Chester Victorian architects, Lockwood and Sons, united both houses internally. Externally, they added the flamboyant windows across both buildings.
The earliest known use of the decorated building was as a multi-purpose meeting space, particularly for the Chester Merchant Adventurers. Over the years, the houses and their burgage plots have had multiple uses from residential to bars.
