At Thamesweb, we believe
that the internert is the perfect medium to make permanently
available the wealth of information that exists about our town.
We have therefore launched the Royal Windsor History
Zone on TheRoyalWindsorWebsite.com. In the last year stories
have been prepared such as The
Floods of 1947,
the Freeze
of 1963 and the
Bridges
of Windsor together
with an ever growing resource of information about Windsor past
and present.
Our Flagship Project is to make available the substantial
history published in the 19th century by Tighe and Davis, 'Annals of Windsor', a much respected two volume
set of some 1500 pages, covering the development of the town
from the period prior to the construction of the castle, through
to Victorian times. As such it is a significant history of Windsor
and its appearance on the internet will be the subject of extensive
press coverage.
We invite leading local businesses and individuals to support
this magnificent project by pledging any amount from £10,000
down to just £100 in return for substantial recognition
of the part that individuals and companies will have played to
make the project possible. Private donations of as littleas £25
will ensure a named individual will be permanently associated
with the project and listed as a benefactor.
Thamesweb is perfectly placed to undertake the required
work and is providing guarantees to ensure that all sponsors,
benefactors and supporters are acknowledged prominently throughout
the Web area for a period of at least ten years following completion.
It is intended that once completed the 'Annals of Windsor' will be a permanent feature of
Windsor as represented on the Web.
