Berkshire has a very rich
heritage both culturally and naturally.
The buildings, landscapes, habitats, collections
and archives that comprise the heritage
of West Berkshire include many that are
nationally and regionally significant. The
region is just over an hour's drive from
London, Bristol and Oxford and rail and
road links are excellent. The Berkshire
Downs boast the Ridgeway National Path and
Walbury Hill, near Inkpen is the highest
chalk hill in England.
The Royal Borough of Windsor, with its blend
of rich history and successful modern business
development, covers 76 square miles, just
12 miles to the west of London. The main
towns of Windsor, Maidenhead and Ascot are
surrounded by 14 villages, linked by a common
thread - the River Thames.
One of the Borough's most important assets
is large number of unspoiled rural areas,
including 1,000 acres of National Trust
land and 4,800 acres owned by the Crown.
There is also a network of widely-used public
footpaths, bridleways and byways which give
access to the countryside and river
Communication links are excellent, with
four major motorways, Heathrow and Gatwick
Airports close by and four main line railway
stations.

and with its close connections to the Royal
Family, attracts millions of visitors every
year - not only from countries across the
world but also from throughout the United
Kingdom. In addition to two of the UK's
top 10 visitor attractions, the Borough
boasts a wide variety of art, leisure and
sports facilities as well as a range of
