Windsor NSW 2756 
(Pop 2 000) 
Windsor is an important Hawkesbury River township 56 km n-w of Sydney. Steeped in history and charm, it is Australia’s 3rd oldest European settlement having been settled in 1794. Windsor is one of 5 Macquarie towns (Richmond, Castlereagh, Wilberforce, Pitt Town) established by Gov. Macquarie who chose the site for its shipping access and agricultural potential. Unfortunately, its proximity to the river has also resulted in a number of devastating floods. Today it is the commercial and administrative centre of the region as well as an outer Sydney suburb due to the metropolitan sprawl, yet is also surrounded by some stunning national parks. 
Accommodation: 
Windsor has three motels, 8 hotels and a caravan park.
