Description
This structure is part of the city wall from Newgate to Barnaby's Tower in Chester, dating from the late 11th century to the early 12th century. The wall was damaged during the Civil War from 1644 to 1646 and was converted into a raised promenade between 1702 and 1708, with repairs made during various periods. It is constructed of coursed red sandstone rubble, with some sections featuring a plinth and weathered cap. There are added buttresses and some patching present. This section of the walls is approximately 290 meters long, with the wall walk being about 2 meters wide.
