The River Thames near Runneymede

Few pics left in the camera from the trip south. The Royal Holloway University is not very far from where we were staying, built at the Bequest of a Dr Holloway who made his fortune in the 1860/80's by selling an ointment and pills he had

invented. The original building was built as a college for 250 ladies with a sanatorium for the same number nearby.

On the way to Windsor we passed along the side of the River Thames between Runnymede and Englefield - should bring back a few memories for Aunty Kiera Murphy.
There was a steam fair on the green at Englefield where we spotted the old stone drinking trough.
