Chester City volunteer regiment, in garrison at Chester during the First Civil War
Not precisely a Trained Band regiment, the unit was comprised of volunteer townsmen. They usually guarded the city, but occasional detachments were sent for service elsewhere, such as the sieges of Harwarden and Beeston Castles. Although present in Chester during the Battle of Rowton Heath they do not appear to have been heavily engaged, if at all.
Sir Francis and a selection of soldiers presumed to belong to his regiment are illustrated in the form of stained glass at St Chad’s Church in Farndon, Cheshire, together with prominent Chester Royalists Sir Richard Grosvenor, Sir William Mainwaring and William Barnston. The window was painted post-restoration using Civil War era drill manuals as inspiration for the figures. The coat colours today appear yellow, but examination of the window has shown that originally they were painted in red, the colour having deteriorated over the centuries.
