Hey there jcd-Lynch,


In order to get your photos from iCloud to your iPhone and then to your PC, you'll have to follow a few steps.


Start out by downloading the photos from iCloud to your iPhone:

Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud

Download copies of your photos and videos from your device
- On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos. Then select Download and Keep Originals and import the photos to your computer
- On your Mac, open the Photos app. Select the photos and videos you want to copy. Choose File > Export.
- On your PC, make sure that you set up iCloud for Windows and turn on iCloud Photos. Open File Explorer. In the Navigation pane, click iCloud Photos, then select the images you want to keep on your PC. Right-click the selection and choose "Always keep on this device." If you use iCloud for Windows 10 or earlier, learn how to download your photos. After the items download, copy them to another folder on your computer. To do this, press and hold the Ctrl key and drag the items to the folder. Include this folder if you back up your computer.

Once the download has completed, follow the steps to import them to your PC:

Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone or iPad to your Mac or PC


Regards.
