Harriet Windsor-Clive, 13th Baroness Windsor (30 July 1797 – 9 November 1869[1]), was a landowner and wealthy benefactor in the Penarth and Cardiff area of South Wales. She is probably best known for developing Penarth Dock in competition with the Marquess of Bute's docks in Cardiff and for her charitable donations in the area.
After the death of her brother, the 6th Earl of Plymouth, in 1833, the subsidiary title of the earldom, Baron Windsor, fell in abeyance. After the death of her elder sister in 1855, the abeyance was terminated in her favour and she became The Baroness Windsor.[1]
