History and Names of the High Sheriff's of Chester

The High Sheriff is the oldest secular office under the Crown. Formerly the High Sheriff was the principal law enforcement officer in the county but over the centuries most of the responsibilities associated with the post have been transferred elsewhere or are now defunct, so that its functions are now largely ceremonial. The High Sheriff changes every March. Most of the High Sheriff's were descended from the ancient baronial families of Cheshire who ruled for over 800 years.
