Old Bishop's Palace, Chester : ウィキペディア英語版 | Old Bishop's Palace, Chester
The Old Bishop's Palace is located in an elevated position overlooking The Groves and the River Dee in Chester, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II * listed building. ==History==
Building of the palace began before 1745, and it was completed in 1751. It was built for Samuel Peploe, Bishop of Chester. The palace was substantially expanded in the 18th century, and altered again in the 19th century but, apart from the main door, its external appearance has been virtually unchanged since the 18th century. It became the official residence of the bishops of Chester in 1865, and continued to be used for this purpose until the 1920s. It then was converted for use as a YMCA hostel, and retained this purpose until the early 1980s, when it was further converted into commercial offices.
