You are standing in the middle of Greenwich Park, looking south. | The park was originally laid out by Charles II to a plan by Le Notre. | on the hill you can see the royal observatory | William Defoe wrote in 1724: "The beuty of Greenwich is owing to the lustre of its inhabitants...here several of the most active and useful gentlemen of the late armies, | having grown old in the service of their country, are retired to...reflect with pleasure upon the dangers they have gone through." |  | ||||||||||
