Royal Berkshire Hotel Once owned by the Spencer Family (Winston Spencer Churchill) the building was later used as a School for the blind and since the early 1970's has been a hotel. An ideal billet for the Ascot races or Sunningdale Golf.

The Great Pond I took this on a geocaching trip in Windsor Great Park. It is very near the route of the Three Castles Path and is a spot which birdwatchers appear to enjoy, although the road across the head of the pond is actually off-limits.
