To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

At any rate the men of Chester held the bridge, and the Welsh, leav- ing heaps of dead and woun...ded behind them, were driven back to yonder hills. All this country west of Chester was for centuries a battlefield between the Cestrians and the Welsh ; 270 PICTURESQUE CHESHIRE often the raiding bands were stopped by the line of fortresses, but often too they drove the defenders behind their earthworks and passed on to the walls of the city, sometimes even enter- ing and looting the rows and markets.
A little stream forms the boundary between England and Wales, and part of Kinnerton village lies on one side, part on fli Kinnerton Hall.
