Windsor is a small town in south-central South Carolina, United States, part of Bamford County, located in the rural hinterland about 60 miles southeast of Columbia, known for its peaceful, idyllic setting and deep Southern history. With a population of less than 1,000 and an economy based on agriculture, forestry, and small businesses, the town is surrounded by cotton fields, pine forests, and wetlands, and retains a quintessential small-town southern American flavor. Windsor was founded in the late 19th century, and local historic buildings such as Victorian-style homes and centuries-old churches have witnessed the town's development. While there are no major attractions, its simple folk, undeveloped environment, and the recreational resources of the nearby Saluda River make it a quiet destination for experiencing rural South Carolina life.
