The Old Building at Chester College, constructed in 1842, is a Grade II listed structure exemplifying the Tudor Revival architectural style popular in Victorian Britain. Built from slate and brick in Cheshire West and Chester, the complex comprises the college building itself along with its associated north east and south east walls. Originally serving as a school of pedagogy, the structure reflects the educational aspirations of nineteenth-century England while its surviving walls testify to the careful preservation of the institution's historic campus fabric.
