Overview
At the Windsor end, the great eye-catching feature is the Long Walk, a dead-straight avenue running north-south for two miles from the Upper Ward of the castle to Snow Hill, the highest point, laid out by Charles Us architect, Hugh May. The land to the east of Windsor Forest in the Middle Ages was all part of the estates of Chertsey Abbey, an ancient Benedictine foundation, whose monks did much to shape the landscape and economy of this part of the Thames Valley.\\n In the nineteenth century it had been used for race meetings, which were notorious for attracting pickpockets and ne'er-dowells.
