Booth Mansion, Georgian townhouse in Chester, England
The mansion features brick construction with stone quoins across eight bays and two storeys, incorporating sections of the Chester Rows system.
George Booth commissioned the transformation of two medieval houses into this single residence in 1700, retaining original elements from the 13th century.
The building functioned as assembly rooms for Chester's social gatherings during the 1740s and 1750s before becoming an auction gallery.
The structure now houses multiple businesses, including a gallery, tearoom, deli, and office spaces designated for creative industry professionals.
The mansion's frontage extends into Watergate Street at an angle, resulting in a historical fine of £10 for street encroachment.
