Reviews
"Nice stop along the walls, great to learn about the history. Good place to take some good pictures when the sun is shining."
"Just a stone's throw from Bonewaldesthorne's tower. This tower is just off the main public city wall walk, but can be seen clearly from the city wall and down in the Water Tower gardens where you can go right up to the tower. Quite a striking tower when seen from below."
"Another great day in Chester, not a lot of rubbish lying around here, and that makes a welcome change in itself. You can't fail to be enthusiastic about Chester, all the history and previous generations have made this a relaxing and stress free city. Well done Chester. Particularly the bus interchange, exceptionally clean, apart from chewing gum everywhere, and totally inadequate toilet facilities, but NO, broken glass, or Macdonald's garbage everywhere. Wish Warrington could be like this. Cheers."
"Beautiful scenery, amazing history also great for children and families xx"
"What a fantastic little park. Great for balance and coordination for the little ones. Would be. Nice area for picnic in dry weather and just off the walls its a great distraction before you complete the walls walk with little ones."
