History of The Willows and a riverside setting for the Garden Party

At the July meeting, one of the club members gave an illustrated talk about The Willows in Windsor which was once the home of the Dowager Duchess of Sutherland after the death of the third Duke.  Pat explained how the estate had changed between 1800 when the first house was built and now when the original property has been divided into many separate homes: all unique.  The talk was particularly pertinent as the Annual Garden Party was being held in the garden of one of the properties.

The garden party was held on Sunday 20th July when over 50 members and friends enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch in the riverside garden.  Raffles, a book staff and a tombola helped raise funds for the Presidents two charities.
