Hi, as from the subject I am after a good, free interpreter for windows 32,
and where possible avoid installing extra things like cygwin etc
Any suggestions please?

Would a compiler to native-code satisfy you as well? With the same
interactive environment you might get from an interpreter, as well?
You have several choices, then, in the Common Lisp world:
Free for personal use, but crippled in some form (usually it is no
obstacle to learning CL or doing homework):
* Franz's Allegro Common Lisp (http://www.franz.com/)
* Xanalys's LispWorks (http://www.lispworks.com/)
Free for personal use, not crippled:
* Corman Lisp (http://www.cormanlisp.com/)
GPL'd:
* CLISP (http://clisp.sf.net/) but requires Cygwin, IIRC. Only
byte-code compiles, as well.
Sites to see:
* http://www.lisp.org/
* http://ww.telent.net/cliki/index
Tutorial/book suggestions:
* http://www.psg.com/~dlamkins/sl/cover.html
* http://www-cgi.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/user/dst/www/LispBook/index.html
* http://www.psychologie.uni-trier.de:8000/projects/ELM/elmart.html
* _ANSI Common Lisp_, Paul Graham
* _Paradigms of AI Programming_, Peter Norvig (slightly more advanced)
That should get you started.

No, CLISP does not require cygwin, e.g.
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/clisp/clisp-2.30-win32.zip?download
It compiles with cygwin though.

Thanks a bunch guys :)

Ignoring the aura of slowness that it conveys, is the
word "interpreter" factually wrong in cases where it
is in effect implemented as something like
(compose execute-compiled-code compile)
?
