New Poems

We hope you enjoy this selection of poems produced by the W.E.A. Writers Group, in response to medieval objects in the Grosvenor Museum collection and the medieval literature from Chester, as well as the idea of Chester as a border city in the past and today. Thank you to the writers, whose work provides wonderful new perspectives on Chester and its heritage.
