[edit] Local government
North Ascot is largely in the civil parish of Winkfield in the borough of Bracknell Forest with a small portion in the civil parish of Sunninghill and Ascot in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead.
[edit] Housing
Houses tend to be large late-Victorian or Edwardian, set in generally spacious grounds. These are mostly found sheltering behind high hedges or electric gates. The highest concentration is around the perimeter of the course and towards Windsor Great Park. More modest, recent houses (mostly 1970/80s) can be found on the estate straddled by Gainsborough Drive.
