 Timber-framed Market Cross House, built as a butcher shop in 1718, formed part of a butchers’ shambles. Its crooked appearance is thought to be due to structural alterations in the 1700s. The stone cross at the front marks the former medieval market place.

 Collecters gather outside the tea rooms next to the Guildhall for the start of the walk.

Windsor Castle
In the late 1060s a timber and earth fortress was built by William the Conqueror on the chalk hill overlooking the river Thames, as part of a ring of defences around London. In 1170 King Henry II replaced this with stone buildings. Today’s castle is the result of centuries of rebuilding, extending and refurbishment by England’s kings and queens. Much is open to the public most days of the year. It is an official residence of The Queen who stays for extended weekends and sometimes longer.
