The history of Greenwich is inseparable from its maritime history
and royal palace. In later years, industries also built up along
the River Thames’ frontage, including the massive power station
that powered London’s tram and Underground systems. Today, the
old industrial area on the peninsula in East Greenwich is home to
the O2 dome. Greenwich’s pubs reflect the town’s history, from
the Georgian Cutty Sark and Trafalgar Tavern on the river, to pubs
serving the market, cinemagoers and residents. It is also the home
of the Meantime Brewery, which acknowledges the Meridian Line
centred on Greenwich. In Greenwich Pubs, author David C. Ramzan
takes the reader on a fascinating journey through the area’s
watering holes, many of which have retained features and traditions
of previous ages. Brimming with quirky tales and fascinating facts,
this carefully crafted guide initiates readers into the fascinating
history of Greenwich’s pubs.
