This view has scarcely changed since the photo was taken - compare with Google Street

Wow, can't believe it still looks the same. That's fantastic. Here's another modern view, somewhat marred by construction barriers: www.flickr.com/photos/davellandudno/70613085/

The building on the corner facing us is 1 Bridge Street. It is a Grade II* Listed Building. It is not particularly old, being late19th Century, and completed in 1888, i.e. not long before the photo was taken (there are much older things nearby: Medieval and Roman). However, its style is inspired by Tudor (16th Century) house building. I've always imagined the inspiration is Little Moreton Hall, a well-known 16th Century half-timbered mansion not far from Chester, in the same county (Cheshire).
