About Windsor Castle
This corner pub, tucked away in the back streets of Kensington, contrasts an old world feel that you might expect to find in a more rural setting, with a modern up-market service and menu style. The name of the pub is a reminder of when it was possible to have the excitement of seeing Windsor Castle from the top of Campden Hill, although the dray horses who had to pull the beer up there may not have shared the sentiment.
The bar room is divided into four drinking areas but, surprisingly, the partitions and other wood-panelling are not part of the original 1830 build by Fuller’s but date from a 1933 refurbishment. Included in CAMRA’s National Inventory and Grade II listed. Up to four cask ales may be on offer; the beer garden to the rear boasts its own bar.
A Heritage Statement about this pub can be viewed on the K & C Council planning portal and
archive photos of this site as a Charrington's Ales house may be seen at http://www.historypin.org/en/windsor-castle/
