Blue Plaques of Greenwich

Blue Plaques of Greenwich

There isn’t much else to say about Greenwich than to quote the old Greenwich Council signs – ‘Greenwich, Where Time Begins’. If one travels from Deptford into Greenwich across Deptford Creek, you really feel the seismic change. It’s as if the air changes. Curiously though, there is a lack of blue plaques in Greenwich town proper. There are more, in fact, in little Blackheath, just across the way, where many of the plaques are for individuals who worked in Greenwich. That said, Greenwich does have it's own set o blue plaques, and here is our list of them.
