Greenwich, royal borough and the outer borough of London, England. It lies on the south bank of the River Thames in the historic county of Kent. Greenwich is famous for its naval and military connections and its green spaces. The present borough was established in 1965 by amalgamating the former metropolitan boroughs of Greenwich and Woolwich, excluding a small area north of the Thames. The borough comprises the areas and historic towns of Greenwich, Blackheath (in part), Charlton, Woolwich, Plumstead, Abbey Wood (in part), Thamesmead (in part), Shooters Hill, Kidbrooke, Eltham, South End, Mottingham (in part), and New Eltham (in part). Greenwich was recorded as Greenwich in 964 CE, and it appears as Grenviz in Domesday Book (1086). Woolwich was written as Uuluuich in 918 and Hulviz in 1086.
A significant proportion of the borough’s land is reserved for public open spaces. Fronting the Thames in the western part of the borough is the famous Greenwich Park, in which the Royal Greenwich Observatory, the National Maritime Museum, and the Old Royal Naval College are found. That area, also known as Maritime Greenwich, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997. In 1433 Humphrey Plantagenet, Duke of Gloucester, enclosed Greenwich Park and built a watchtower on the north-facing hill above the river. Inigo Jones’s Queen’s House, the first Palladian-style building in England, was commissioned as a residence for Anne of Denmark; it was completed in the 1630s for Queen Henrietta Maria, consort of Charles I. The house was later converted into a school (1806), and colonnades joined two new wings to the original building. Since 1937 the Queen’s House has been part of the National Maritime Museum.
The Old Royal Naval College is located on the site of a 15th-century riverbank house that was converted into a royal palace (known as Placentia) by the Tudor monarchs. Henry VIII (reigned 1509–47) was born at Placentia, and he spent time there with his wives Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, and Anne of Cleves. His daughters, the queen Mary I and Elizabeth I, also were born there, and it was the site of the death of Edward VI. After the old palace fell into disrepair, a new block was built for Charles II. In 1694 Sir Christopher Wren was commissioned to complete the building as a hospital for retired and disabled sailors. Sir John Vanbrugh and Nicholas Hawksmoor supervised the construction. In 1873 Wren’s structure (the Greenwich Hospital) became the Royal Naval College (closed in 1996). The University of Greenwich and Trinity College of Music now hold classes there. The college and the National Maritime Museum ensemble have been described as one of the most finely balanced architectural compositions in the London area.
The Royal Greenwich Observatory, designed by Wren, stands on the hill above these buildings. With its high-vaulted Octagon Room, the observatory was erected in the 17th century. By 1957 its official functions had been transferred elsewhere, and the site was subsequently made a museum.
