English Presbyterian Church of Wales, Chester, Neoclassical Presbyterian church in Chester, England.
The English Presbyterian Church of Wales is a neoclassical house of worship in Chester with a stuccoed front and brick side walls topped by a slate roof. A portico supported by four Ionic columns marks the main entrance and gives the building its formal appearance.
Architect Michael Gummow from Wrexham designed this Grade II listed building in 1864 following classical principles of church design. The construction reflects architectural traditions that were widespread in England during that period.
The church maintains regular Presbyterian services while functioning as a gathering space for community activities and religious education programs.
The building sits on City Road and is accessible via multiple pedestrian routes and public transportation connections throughout Chester. Visitors should check opening times before a visit, as access may vary depending on scheduled services or community activities.
A stone plaque from 1880 on the building marks the Sunday School centennial and honors Miss Walker of Abbey Green in Chester for her contribution. This dedication serves as a quiet record of the role women played in the early growth of the community center.
