The photographs form part of an exhibition called Newtown Remembered at Chester History and Heritage Centre until November 29. It features pictures and memories of the area, from the 1920s onwards.

Christ Church School, which opened in 1842, is now home to Chester Little Theatre.

If you have photographs or memories to add to the exhibition, e-mail Elaine Pierce Jones at Chester History & Heritage at e.pierce-jones@ chester.gov.uk or telephone 01244 402110.

I can remember visiting my nan and grandad about 45 years ago,they lived in walter street.My mum was Norah Burns, i can also recall having a tin bath and my grandad used to top it up with a copper kettle that he heated up on the coal fire. I can also remember him lifting me on his shoulders at the far end of the street so i could see the steam trains.We,d often go to the little shop on st annes street for sweets,the door had a bell so that when you opened it the bell would ring and inside it was magic
