The Queen Hotel in Chester is captured in this authentic 1970s colour photograph, documented during the Queen’s Silver Jubilee year of 1977. The archival image showcases the hotel’s grand Victorian Italianate architecture, featuring a striking contrast between the red brickwork and the ornate white window dressings and columns. Festive Jubilee bunting is seen draped across the front entrance and upper storeys. In the foreground, a selection of period vehicles are parked along the kerbside, most notably a classic white Triumph GT6. The hotel, located on City Road opposite the railway station, remains a significant landmark of Chester’s railway heritage. This factual record preserves the elegant atmosphere and architectural detail of the city during the 1970s, highlighting the celebration of a major British national milestone.
