The Royal Borough of Greenwich stretches from Deptford in the West, across to Charlton in the East and south to the A2 that cuts through Blackheath on the edge of the Royal Park. The area around Greenwich Village is the historic heart of the borough and forms the Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Cutty Sark museum can be found here, along with Greenwich Market, The Old Royal Naval College and the National Maritime Museum. The entrance to the Victorian foot tunnel is also found on the riverside here, providing pedestrian access across the Thames to the Isle of Dogs.
Greenwich Park forms one of the largest green spaces in south east England. It boasts a rich royal history – Henry VIII kept deer there for hunting and Charles II chose to build the Royal Observatory there in 1675. Just south of the park, the large open space of Blackheath also provides residents with an appealing green space to relax in. Further to the east, Greenwich Peninsula includes a small ecology park with hides for birdwatching.
