The island is an uninhabited tree-covered strip adjacent to the Windsor bank of the river between Windsor Bridge and Windsor Railway Bridge.
Swans, geese and a small number of coots all live on this island.
The same distance as its length downstream, is Barry Avenue Island, or unnamed, which is slightly larger at .641 acres (0.259 ha), compared to Deadwater's size, 0.550 acres (0.223 ha) as itemised by 25-inch-to-the-mile maps produced, out of copyright, in 1897.[1] It is the same distance from the Windsor bank and has the same use for habitat and wildlife.
