In 1849-61 it was virtually rebuilt by the Chester architect James Harrison, although early features survive inside. St Michael's opened as Britain's first heritage centre in 1975.
On the east side of Bridge street the row ends with the old parish church of St Michael's. This is now Chester Heritage Centre.
It is open to the public and contains local research resources and family history information.
