Deanery Field

The banks inside the Walls around the Deanery Field are the remains of first century Roman turf walls, from the time when Chester defences were built of wood and turf, rather than stone. Nowadays a game of cricket is more likely on the Deanery Field, and more or less centre of the photo is the roller used for flattening the crease. To the right of it is Deanery Cottage, one of the many properties owned by the Cathedral.
