Windsor
Windsor is of course best known for its castle, home of
the British Monarchy for almost a thousand years. The Changing
of the Guard at Windsor takes place at 10:50am every day
(or every other day depending on the time of year). The
soldiers can be seen marching up the High Street and they
return at 11:30am. Other popular events include the annual
Windsor Rose Show held beneath the castle walls and the
Swan Upping on the river in mid-July.
The quaint little streets surrounding the entrance to Windsor
Castle give some impression of the town in times past. Windsor
Race Course lies to the west of the town, where there are
regular race meets, but the most popular attraction for
all the family must be the Legoland Theme Park. This fun-packed
pleasure ground is located on the edge of town.

Maidenhead
Maidenhead is twinned with its near neighbour, Windsor
in a double borough. It grew up as the home of the elite
whose homes still spread out along the Thames.
Maidenhead Bridge is an elegant 18th century affair, while
the more stark Railway Bridge, designed by Isambard Kingdom
Brunel, was hailed as a masterpiece when new. Both cross
the Thames at a busy extension east of the town centre,
but one with delightful walks nearby along the riverside
towards Boulters Lock.
Maidenhead boasts an extensive range of High Street shops
in outdoor and indoor shopping areas. There are a large
number of IT, Telecoms and media companies in and around
Maidenhead, making it a very stable employment base.
