Windsor, Berkshire, UK. 19th March, 2024. A huge temporary 35 metre tall observation wheel was being installed yesterday and today in Alexandra Gardens, Windsor, Berkshire. The wheel will give views across Windsor Castle and the town. Planning permission for the wheel was granted by Councilliors at the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, however, it is receiving mixed reviews. Some people think the ferris wheel will bring more tourism to the town whilst some Windsorians think it is inappropriate for the town due to its location. Credit: Maureen McLean/Alamy Live News

Planning permission for the wheel was granted by Councilliors at the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, however, it is receiving mixed reviews. Some people think the ferris wheel will bring more tourism to the town whilst some Windsorians think it is inappropriate for the town due to its location in the historic Alexandra Gardens which is popular for families having picnics in the summer and also an important wildlife habitat. The observation wheel is due to open from 22nd March and will be in place until 2nd September 2024. Credit: Maureen McLean/Alamy Live News
