Old Windsor

About

Old Windsor ward covers a large, predominantly rural area on the south-eastern edge of the Royal Borough. It includes the historic village of Old Windsor itself, situated close to the River Thames, along with surrounding hamlets and expansive green spaces. The landscape is characterised by open fields, woodland, and areas of the Thames floodplain. Residential development is largely contained within the established village centre, preserving a distinct separation from the more urban areas to the north.

The area holds significant historical depth, being the site of an original Saxon royal palace predating Windsor Castle. This legacy is reflected in local architecture and place names. The ward contains several listed buildings and the extensive grounds of the Royal Landscape, part of Windsor Great Park, which features the iconic Savill Garden. The riverfront provides areas for boating and walking, contributing to the ward's quiet, village-oriented character amidst its broader agricultural setting.
