Greenwich Park
Greenwich Park is a World Heritage Site and home to Time itself (Greenwich Mean Time). It hosts the Meridian Line from which the entire world’s time is calculated. Sited alongside the Thames and on the old Roman Road to London, Greenwich Park was originally a manor belonging to King Alfred. In the 16th century it became a favourite with the Tudors, Henry VIII and Elizabeth I was born there. Withnin the Park is the Royal Observatory, National Maritime Museum, a wild garden and some ancient trees, some reputedly over 800 years old.
It’s a great place for enjoyment and a favourite with visitors and locals alike. It also has one of the most spectacular views in London, looking out from the high ground over the Thames, the City, Canary Wharf and much more.
