TOUR | Historic Greenwich

Tudor Palace, Baroque architecture, first Classical building in London and 21st century celebrations?

If it’s all in one place it must be Greenwich. We will see all this and more on this stroll that will include a busy market, a Hawksmoor church and a Royal Park. Find out why Dickens visited, who changed Christopher Wren’s plans for the seamen’s hospital and the connection to Les Miserables! And if we time it just right we’ll be able to set our watches exactly right by Greenwich Mean Time!

The walk will last about 2.5 hours and there are plenty of places for lunch and visits in the afternoon if you want to make a day of it.
