The Chester Archaeological Period Characterisations were created as part of the Chester Urban Archaeological Database (UAD) Project and encompass the Chester non parish area and civil parishes of Chester Castle and Great Boughton.

The Chester Archaeological Period Characterisations were based primarily on archaeological evidence, rather than on the relatively recent historic urban development and are deliberately a broad brush characterisation for the given period.

The available archaeological resource for the Saxon period is typically limited by the ephemeral nature of the resource; however, areas of Saxon settlement, industry and religious activity have been recorded along with traces of a burh defensive system.

切斯特考古时期特征化数据集的构建是作为切斯特城市考古数据库（UAD项目）的一部分，涵盖了切斯特非教区区域以及切斯特城堡和Great Boughton的民政教区。该数据集的特征化主要基于考古证据，而非相对较近的历史城市发展，且故意对该时期进行广泛的概述。对于撒克逊时期的考古资源，通常受限于资源的短暂性；然而，撒克逊定居点、工业和宗教活动的区域以及防御体系遗迹均已被记录。
