Because of the elevated 'Rows' offering different premises to those at ground level, buildings in Chester city centre often have dual numbering. 43 is the shop at ground level, 49 above. Like many of these medieval buildings it has seen several changes of use: as a town house, then a shop and parsonage (it was bequeathed in 1659 to St Michael's Parish), but since 1907 back in commercial use - currently a mobile phone shop below and Italian bar above. Listed Grade II* (list entry 1376089).
