About

Eton & Castle ward encompasses the historic core of Windsor, directly across the Thames from its namesake town of Eton. The area is dominated by Windsor Castle, a working royal palace whose presence shapes the local environment. The immediate streets, such as the High Street and Thames Street, are lined with traditional shops, inns, and restaurants catering to visitors. The compact layout centres around the castle walls and the riverbank.

The ward includes the Home Park and the famous Long Walk, providing extensive green spaces adjacent to the castle grounds. The River Thames forms a natural boundary, with pedestrian bridges connecting to Eton. Local life is intertwined with the castle's routines, including the Changing of the Guard ceremony along the High Street. The area functions as both a major tourist destination and a residential community within the town's oldest quarters.
