Old Windsor & Wraysbury

About

Old Windsor and Wraysbury are neighbouring villages in the Windsor and Maidenhead borough, situated along the River Thames. Old Windsor has historical significance, with roots dating back to Saxon times, and is home to the former site of a royal palace. The area features a mix of residential properties, green spaces, and local amenities, including pubs, shops, and schools. The Thames Path runs through the village, offering scenic riverside walks.

Wraysbury, located to the east, is a smaller village with a rural feel, surrounded by lakes and waterways. It is popular for water-based activities, including fishing and boating. The village has a close-knit community, with a primary school, church, and a few local businesses. Both areas benefit from good transport links, with proximity to the M25 and rail connections to London, making them attractive for commuters while retaining a quieter, village atmosphere.
