This authentic 1970s colour photograph, captured in 1978, features the historic Thames Street in Windsor, Berkshire. The archival image prominently depicts the grand Victorian red-brick architecture of the Garter Inn, adorned with decorative iron balconies and a flying Union Jack flag. Adjacent to the inn, the commercial life of the late 1970s is represented by “Gough Brothers” tailors and a variety of traditional timber-framed and Georgian-style buildings. The foreground shows a vibrant street scene with pedestrians in period attire relaxing on benches and walking along the pavement bordering a lush green lawn. A diverse array of period transport, including several saloon cars and a green double-decker bus, populates the road under a bright, slightly clouded sky. This factual record documents the social atmosphere and architectural grandeur of Windsor during 1978, illustrating the town’s enduring role as a major historical and commercial hub.
