Windsor Castle: Glunimore Island, Sound of Sanda, Firth of Clyde

Paddle Steamer (19th Century)

What is recorded here

Windsor Castle, a 19th-century paddle steamer, lies submerged near Glunimore Island in the Sound of Sanda. Its brass fittings and wooden deck still hold the shape of busy Clyde journeys, though the sea has taken back most of the evidence. The name sounds like a grand castle, but the vessel likely carried ordinary people, goods, or mail through busy water.
