This is Windsor. It has a castle, also signposts.

This page seems to have become entirely devoted to churches we've been to. This one's in Winkfield, which I'm guessing is in Berkshire. We tried to get into neighbouring Warfield (as recommended by our spirit guide, Mr Simon Jenkins) but it was all shut up and when I asked a chap who was walking through the churcyard about getting hold of they key, he looked at me like I'd asked to borrow his squirrel gun.
There was a very nice old lady inside Winkfield church laying tables for serving Mothering Sunday simnel cake on. she told us about the peculiarly clean tower (built in about 1629 but tidied up and re-pointed in about 2006) and the whole-tree wooden pillars holding the nave up which were donated by Queen Elizabeth I from Windsor Great Park.
