This row contained a general and sweet shop (note the Oxo advertisement in the window), with another general store and a teashop at the far end.
The shop of J Singleton, where you could shop and also acquire a haircut, is no longer a general-purpose shop.
A bustling and lively shopping street but not yet choked with motor traffic.

On the left, Parnell's shop is now the Ideal Shop, still selling newspapers.
The Rows are a unique feature to Chester; they provide shops on two levels, the roofs of the shops at street level forming a pedestrian walkway for the shops on the second level.

The first shop on the left is the newsagent, and next to it is the Co-op.
Just past the Midland Bank, looking north west, the elegant late Victorian shops on the left survive, although W H Smith has now moved on.
