These plaques serve as historical markers, recognising outstanding individuals who have lived or worked in the Borough, or significant buildings and events that occurred here. They celebrate the rich history and heritage across the Borough.
Blue Plaques
The RBWM Blue Plaque scheme honours notable individuals, places, and events, celebrating the borough's rich history and heritage.

About the Collection
The collection covers the three primary types of commemorative plaques that are found in the area. It has been collated using information from RBWM, the Windsor & Eton Society (WESOC) and from the WLHG members. It is live, which means we are constantly updating it with new information or new plaques.
The collection is unique in that it includes not only current plaques that the general public can see, but all those that are now inaccessible or have even been removed.
