About

Riverside ward sits on the eastern bank of the River Thames, directly opposite the town of Eton. Its boundaries are defined by the river to the west and the railway lines to the east, creating a distinct, narrow strip of urban development. The area is primarily residential, featuring a mix of Victorian terraces and modern apartment buildings, with local commerce concentrated along the main thoroughfares that connect to Windsor town centre.

A key feature is the direct pedestrian connection to Windsor via the Thames footbridge, which provides views of the castle. The ward includes the grounds of the Royal Windsor Racecourse, a large green space used for events. River-based recreation is central, with several boat clubs and public pathways lining the waterfront, contrasting with the busy railway corridors that mark its inland edge.
