When Alfred Thomas, a part-time bookbinder and part-time victualler, ran this pub in 1901 it was known as The Chester Arms Tavern. It is not functioning at present although there are moves afoot to try to prevent it from being sold off and converted into residential units. This is the south-west end of Chester Street where it joins Argyle Street. Beyond the skip is a footpath that links up with Iffley Fields within seconds. Iffley Fields is a 'green area' that boasts a small grassed area and a children's playground.
