The Plumbers Arms was at no. 39 Queen Street. The site is now built over by the Tesco and British Home Stores rear entrances as well as Union Walk.
The photograph below shows it in 1971. The facade of the classical building, the former Independent Chapel of 1777, to its right still survives.
The licencee in 1934/5 was J Williams.

The Chester artist Jill pears wrote to tell us, "I remember going in there in 1976 with a boyfriend. It was pretty basic, with lino on the floor and a strip light, but it was a very friendly 'local'. The landlady was a jolly plump woman named Mary".
