Greenwich

The London Borough of Greenwich is a London borough in southeast London, formed in 1965 by merging the former metropolitan boroughs of Greenwich and most of Woolwich (with the exception of North Woolwich, north of the river, which became part of the London Borough of Newham).

Greenwich is one of five host boroughs for the 2012 London Olympics with events due to be held at the Royal Artillery Barracks (Shooting), Greenwich Park (Equestrianism ) and the O2 – former Millennium Dome (Gymnastics, Basketball).
