For the smaller central city area, and principal settlement of this district, see Chester.
City of Chester is a Non-metropolitan local government district of Cheshire, North West England, with the status of a city.
Apart from Chester itself, which is the principal settlement, the district covers a large rural area. Other settlements include Malpas and Tarvin.
The district was formed on April 1, 1974, under the Local Government Act 1972, by the merger of the the existing city and county borough of Chester with the Chester Rural District and Tarvin Rural District.
