Bird’s Eye View – 1928

Here’s one of my favourite old Windsor Postcards. This one dates to 1928, and was taken from the roof of the Norton Palmer, and is looking west along Park Street. The Royal Windsor Apartments, which were brand new are visible in the foreground, to the rear is the Royal Windsor garage, long ago demolished. My favourite thing about this card though is the Bridge.

If you look closely, you’ll note there’s no road yet, it was still under construction.
