Eton, Historic town in Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, England.
Located on the northern bank of the River Thames, Eton stands directly opposite Windsor and features stone buildings along its main street.
King Henry VI selected this location in 1440 to establish Eton College, which initiated major construction projects and development of inns along High Street.
The town maintains numerous independent shops, traditional pubs, and restaurants that reflect centuries of English commercial traditions and social gatherings.
Windsor Bridge connects Eton to Windsor, while regular bus services from Thames Valley Buses and Redline Buses link to surrounding communities.
The Eton Town Council consists of seven elected officials who represent both the central area and the separate village of Eton Wick.
