In these difficult times, we are so lucky in this part of Chester to have The Meadows close by for a short walk as part of our once daily exercise routine. The ‘green lungs’ of Chester provide us with the opportunity to stretch our legs, catch some fresh air and observe the natural environment. Here we can enjoy the large skies and the changing patterns and reflections on the surface of the river.
To ensure that we are allowed to continue to take advantage of this green space on our doorstep we need to be mindful to follow the government’s advice as outlined on the signs placed at each of the entrances to The Meadows. (See the cover photo)
Let’s hope that by following these guidelines we can all help to reduce the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid 19) and contribute to a return to our normal freedoms as soon as possible.

The Meadows is an area of unspoilt water meadows situated in the “Earl’s Eye” of the River Dee in Chester. It is home to an abundance of wildlife. The Meadows are unique in being so close to the centre of the busy city of Chester, yet offer a peaceful place to enjoy surrounded by nature. They are regularly enjoyed by walkers, joggers, anglers, bird watchers. There is so much to see: ground nesting birds, river birds, small mammals, aquatic life or just take in the breathtaking beauty.
