Eton & Windsor – Thursday 9th September 2010
By kind permission of the Provost and Fellows of Eton College, and the Dean and Canons of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle
A day to experience history to its fullest with a taste of the King’s College of Our Lady of Eton beside Windsor – founded by King Henry VI in 1440 – still maintaining etiquettes and traditions of bygone ages in a modern day culture and continuing to produce a variety of high profile individuals for positions of importance over a wide spectrum.
And to complete the day’s proceedings, attendance at the Chapel of St George, Windsor Castle, for a service of Choral Evensong – to soak in some of the atmosphere in this place steeped in history and of knights of old and present, a place having served many generations of its peoples since its foundation as a college by King Edward III, in 1348.
A warm welcome waits you from your hosts for this Festival – the Oxford Branch.
