Windsor, located only 57
kilometres northwest of Sydney can claim to be the third European
settlement in Australia after Sydney Cove and Parramatta. Originally
called Green Hills, it was settled in 1794 when 22 settlers took up land
and a road from Sydney was constructed. Five years later the area was
providing Sydney with half its grain requirements.
Its numerous historic
buildings make it a fascinating town for ghost tours, and Destiny Tours
have a reputation for doing ghost tours unlike anyone else. Much
research has been done in order to provide you with lots of new stories
not covered by any other Windsor ghost tour, 27 locations in all!
On the Weird Windsor
