Nice place to stop and take a break.

Just a stone's throw from the information board is the actual Magna Carta memorial. Unfortunately, two different users have turned it into two separate highlights in the komoot system, see =>> https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/547090

The old Windsor Bridge is an iron and granite, multi-span bridge over the Thames. It connects Windsor and Eton and the Thames Path long distance trail also crosses here. It's thought that there has been a bridge here since the 12th century, this bridge was opened in 1824.

This bridge spans the River Thames and connects the towns of Windsor and Eton. From the bridge you can enjoy great views of the castle and surrounding areas. It's a Grade I listed structure and has an elegant design which is a mix of stone and iron.

If arriving by car there is a (very very) small National Trust carpark on Magna Carter Lane. From there you can follow the footpaths through fields towards the priory ruins and the Ankerwyke Yew. The notice board with more information is located across a stream and worth a read!

The Jurors at Runnymede is a memorial site located near the historic Runnymede meadows in Surrey. It commemorates the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215 which was a pivotal moment in the establishment of the rule of law and the rights of individuals. The site features a striking series of stone sculptures representing the 25 barons who were witnesses to the Magna Carta.

The Magna Carta was an agreement that the King of England would rule under law, it's said to be the founder of the countries legal system. King John met the opposing Barons here in 1215 and put his seal to the treaty. Although he revoked it almost instantly and started a civil war, this was the foundation of many laws that John's son King Henry III issued upon taking the throne after his fathers' death in 1216.

The fountain was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and was presented by King George VI.
