Langton house windsor

Langton House Windsor UK
It would appear from the amount of research material available that this property was built around 1890. It is on maps in 1895 and the ages of other properties in the immediate area are of around this age.
Langton House is built on Alma Road which at one point was the boundary to the town of Windsor. Alma Road itself was named after the Battle of Alma.
During its early life it was a private residence but it may have originally been built as a residence for the minor Government officials that at this period were having to travel around the country following Queen Victoria who was spending months at a time in Windsor.
Langton House at some point became a nursing home. This in the 1930's was a term given to any establishment that was used as a place for women to come and give birth.
In 1963 it was used as a backdrop to Carry on Cabby, a famous UK industry film that now documents many aspects of a previous time in Windsor's history.
