Historic Windsor

Windsor is steeped in history with many historic homes and buildings still preserved as a remnant of its past life. From Oakwal House(circa 1864) to the old hospital and Salvation Army HQ Boothville, grand villa Kirkston , the quaint building that was once home to Windsor Shire Council, and even a park named after famous aviator Bert Hinkler who was a regular visitor to Windsor's old aero club.
