Fernhill Park, Berkshire

Woodside is a hamlet in Berkshire, England, within the civil parishes of Winkfield and Sunninghill and Ascot in the boroughs of Bracknell Forest and Windsor and Maidenhead. The settlement lies near to the A332 road and is approximately 1.5 miles (2.4 km) north-east of Ascot Racecourse and largely surrounded by Windsor Great Park. In the early Twentieth Century the south of the hamlet was the site of the Ascot Brick Works. It has two pubs The Rose and Crown and the Duke of Edinburgh but no shops or church, as such it is probably best described as a hamlet and not a village. It features several historic houses and buildings (mostly in the northern part of the hamlet). In the 19th and early 20th Century there were two distinct hamlets: Woodend (to the southern end) which included a huge country house called Woodend House (last reference to this country house is on an 1886 map and this is now completely demolished). Woodend is in the parish of Sunninghill and Ascot and in 2020, there are a few cottages called Woodend Cottages along the Windsor Road towards Ascot. Woodside (to the northern end up to the Mounts Hill roundabout, better known as The Peanut Roundabout due to its shape). Woodside is in the parish of Winkfield, Bracknell Forest.Nowadays the name Woodend has all but disappeared as a descriptor of any part of the hamlet and Woodside is applied to the whole hamlet. The parish and borough boundaries still run through the middle of the Woodside and right through the centre of the Duke of Edinburgh public house. This boundary also runs along a bridleway called Hodge Lane and the old granite boundary markers are still there to be seen, they reflect the historic boundary between the Royal land (now Windsor and Maidenhead) and the East Hampstead land (now Bracknell Forest). The Thatched Cottage in Woodside Village is said to have once been the residence given to the Headmaster of Cranbourne School. In 2021 it had a population of 500.

The Ascot Golf Club was founded in 1887, and became a Royal Club by command of Queen Victoria later that year. It is the second oldest, and the only Royal, golf club in Berkshire. The course was designed by John Henry Taylor, who went on to design many courses in Europe. One of the earlier competitions played on the course was the Boys Amateur Championship, which was first played in 1921. The Trophy for this was presented to The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, who continue to host the competition annually. The original course was at Ascot Heath, in the middle of Ascot Racecourse. In 2000, the racecourse owners gave the club notice to vacate the land, and eventually a new location was found on the other side of the road in Sunninghill Park. The new clubhouse opened to members in December 2004 and was officially inaugurated in 2006 by the patron of the club, Prince Andrew, Duke of York. Golf continued on Ascot Heath until August 2005 when it moved to the new course.

The Hill Train is a funicular railway ride and transportation system at Legoland Windsor Resort in Windsor, Berkshire, England. It is a 3 ft 6 in (1,067 mm) narrow gauge funicular railway down a curved slope and travels between two stations, with a height difference between the top and bottom stations of approximately 27 metres (89 ft). The railway has a track length of approximately 1,650 feet (500 m) and operates on a gradient of around 1 in 7. A typical journey lasts about two minutes. It is the only ride located at The Beginning section of Legoland Windsor. The Hill Train predates the Legoland theme park, having originally been installed in 1991 when the site operated as Windsor Safari Park. It is the only surviving remnant of when it was part of the Windsor Safari Park which closed in 1992, being refurbished when the park opened on 29 March 1996 with stained glass windows made from translucent Lego bricks by local school children. The funicular train both functions as an attraction as popular transportation transporting visitors between the upper and lower areas of the park, helping guests navigate the steep terrain. The attraction operates as a cable-hauled funicular system with two trains connected to one another, allowing one to ascend while the other descends simultaneously. This counterbalance arrangement helps regulate speed and reduces the power required to haul the trains uphill. Each train consists of three carriages painted in bright colours including red, yellow, and blue. The central carriage provides space for pushchairs and wheelchairs, improving accessibility for guests.
