Windsor Attractions

Windsor (pop. 9420), in the Hawkesbury valley, is one of the oldest towns in Australia, with many buildings dating from its early days. The first settlers came to the area in 1794, and the town, one of the five 'Macquarie towns', was founded by Governor Macquarie in 1810. The well-known convict architect Francis Greenway was employed to design and build St Matthew's Church (1817). The courthouse was also his work.
