Queens Park Bridge

Such a lovely calm place, along the river bank. Always neat and tidy, usually quite busy and popular with the boats, little food huts and restaurants. The water looks very cold, but there are often kayak groups along the wier! :)

This is a lovely iron and wire support bridge built in 1923. It takes you over the river Dee to the homes of the wealthy Georgian and Victorian business people that had their workplaces in the central parts of Chester. It affords picturesque views of the river with various pleasure boats and many varieties of sea birds. You can choose to walk past the beautiful houses or along the riverside and return to central Chester via the older Roman bridge

Beautiful area of chester, great views of the river and bandstand. Easy access to grovesnor Park, the roman gardens, the amphitheatre and the chester meadows which make it great for a walk, jog or bike ride. You can also rent boats close by. Chester centre is only a short walk away

Large suspension bridge that crosses the River Dee. Built in 1923 and replaces a bridge of a similar style in the same spot that was from the 1850's. You can feel the suspension as you walk across the bridge.

Well what can I say! It's a bridge and a very nice bridge too! It's also great for getting good photos of the Riverside and passing boats. Well worth a visit.

Lovely old bridge to get to the otherside of the River Dee. Nice bit of architecture in Chester and well worth a walk over it!

Lovely bridge currently celebrating it's centenary!

Certainly, crossing the River Dee via the Queen's Park Bridge is a very interesting experience. As you pass the Old Dee Bridge and River Cruise Piers, you see the suspension bridge open on 18 November 1923, replacing the Queen's Park suspension bridge that had been opened in 1852. Designed by Charles Greenwood, Bridge joins The Groves residential area with Queen's Park by providing two pedestrian-only bridges.

As you walk across the bridge, you can see the views of Chester as well as the River Dee as you view it. It is a pedestrian bridge and very attractive with access from both sides, allowing you to enjoy the views along the River Dee.

In comparison to the city, the River Dee is a relaxing and enjoyable experience. This is due to its sheer size in addition to the boating events that take place there. Nevertheless, I'm not sure how much clearance there is between the metal poles where you walk on the bridge and where you enter the bridge, so I'm not sure if wheelchairs or mobility scooters can cross it.

In addition to the step-free approach, the bridge has three bollards at the beginning, which are probably intended to block vehicles, but it is unclear whether mobility scooters can fit between them. Currently, there are no cyclists signs on the street. It describes the Queens Park Bridge as a Suspension Bridge, instead of describing it specifically.

Grosvenor Park, where you look down on the bridge, provides the best view of the bridge. Looking up at the bridge from the Groves by the river is also a nice view. There are many beautiful views from the bridge in general.

Restaurants, ice cream stands, and vending machines line the riverbank, and there is a park nearby.

This place is definitely worth checking out if you plan on visiting Chester.
