Looking in the obvious place:
ftp.gnu.org
the various readme files point to non-existent locations.
Eventually I found
ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs
and the latest version that actually exists is 19.34 which
must be some years old by now. The directories like 21.3
contain lots of files with names like
<something> back-RSN
but dated last August. I tried 2 or 3 mirrors with similar
results. Please are there download sites with anything more
recent than 19.34? Thank you.

Thank you who replied. I downloaded 21.3 from the site
recommended by Peter Wu. It seems to work; there are
some problems but I cannot ask about them as I
think they are more-or-less covered in the FAQ files at
www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows
