2 Vicars Lane, Chester
The standard of black-and-white in Chester is very high so this specimen, while not bad, comes across as rather insipid.
Now offices of solicitors, Allington Hughes.

Former St John's Rectory, Vicar's Lane, Chester
I admit to some confusion here. This building of c.1750 in a classical style, it is listed by Historic England as the former St John's Rectory (grade II* / list entry 1375975); the small church hall of 1881 to the right is also listed (II / 1385978). But the smaller 1892 building on the corner of Love Lane (which I didn't photograph) is also listed as a former rectory (II / 1375970). Clergy houses are getting smaller these days, but I can't see why a larger house would have been replaced with a smaller one in the peak of Victorian churchgoing and at a time of large families.

Looking along Priory Place, which is a cul de sac leading off Love Street. The Victorian cottages are dwarfed by the office buildings behind.
