Founded to encourage the study of the archaeology and history of Chester and its region, the Society brings together members with a shared curiosity about the city’s Roman, medieval, and modern past.
We publish original research in our Journal, run a programme of talks and excavations, and campaign to protect the historic fabric of the city for future generations.

Our new season of talks opens with a survey of medieval Chester, followed by guest speakers through December.
The latest volume features research on the city walls, plus reports from this year’s fieldwork.
