"Built over nearly 500 years from the 11th to the 16th century, Chester Cathedral has traces of every Medieval English architectural style, from Norman Romanesque to Perpendicular Gothic. The oldest parts of the cathedral are in the north transept, which has a semi-circular Romanesque arch, while the northwest tower also has 11th-century origins. Here there’s a beautiful baptismal font, fashioned from black marble and dating to 1697."

"Chester Cathedral is a Church of England cathedral built on Anglo-Saxon foundations dating back to the year 907. Since then it has gradually been extended and rebuilt three times, the most lasting design from 1250 being what we see today. For the first 530 years it was known as Saint Werburgh's Abbey after the remains of the Saint it housed."

"Speke Hall was built 400 years ago in the 16th century for the Norris family. The stunning property remained in the family for generations until 1736, when Mary Norris married Lord Sidney Beauclerk. In 1795, wealthy Liverpool merchant Richard Watt moved into the hall, which was later passed onto his son Richard Watt V who restored and fully refurnished the house in the 1860s."

"A marvellous example of an Elizabethan half-timbered hall, Speke Hall is filled with gorgeously timbered and plastered rooms. The house contains several 'priest's holes', where the hall's sympathetic owners hid... Cultural Centre in Liverpool"

"Discover the fascinating history of Adlington Hall as you tour The Great Hall, the chapel, oak-panelled dining room, the Minstrel’s Gallery, the number 10 bedroom, and more. Alongside the Great Organ, visitors can enjoy the original furniture, paintings, and décor of the building, or wander the gardens, attempt the maze, or enjoy a slice of homemade cake and a cup of tea in the tea room. I Opening Times: Public open days run on Sundays and Bank Holidays during April and September."

"A tremendous mixture of styles, Adlington Hall was founded at the end of the 15th century and then reworked in the 18th century. So while the north and east facades have romantic black and white timber framing the south and west wings are brick built, with a solemn Palladian portico. Adlington is hired out for weddings, but on Sundays between April and October the house and gardens are open to visitors."

"This famously colourful boutique hotel does a stellar afternoon tea. Go for the classic finger sandwiches and scones with jam and delicious clotted cream but swap your cuppa for a tea-inspired cocktail. If you don’t have a sweet tooth, choose the savoury version where cakes are replaced with the likes of sliders, scotch eggs and pigs in blankets."
