St David's Terrace, Saltney
This end of Saltney is called Saltney Ferry and St David's Terrace, a cul-de-sac which leads off Chester Road, includes a row of these unusual Victorian semi-detached houses. According to an estate agent's particulars for one of the houses (not in this view), they were 'understood to have been constructed by The Great Western Railway'. This seems surprising because, although the Great Western had a station in Saltney, these houses are much nearer the London & North Western Railway's line. Nevertheless, there is something about the architecture that is reminiscent of the Great Western's house style.

The Cinder Path, Saltney Ferry
Looking west, the improved footpath, now surfaced in Tarmac, joins St David's Terrace and the Mainwaring Estate. St David's High School playing Fields are on the left, and the Chester to Holyhead Rail Line is on the right. Secure fencing keeps the playground and railway apart.

St David's Terrace, Saltney
At the end of this residential street there used to be a level crossing, which provided access to various industrial premises on the other side of the Chester to Holyhead rail line. With the construction of River Lane, on the other side of the railway, from the other end of Saltney, there is no longer any requirement for a crossing here. The gates now only provide access to the railway for maintenance workers.

Faded advertising on house
The end wall of this house was a ready made advertising location as it faces all travellers towards Chester on the old main road from Broughton. From memory and careful scrutiny I believe it says:
BOLLANDS
RESTAURANT
Eastgate Street
CHESTER
[illegible]
Open on Sundays
[unclear]
Bollands used to be a licensed restaurant next to Browns of Chester.
