Royal Greenwich Heritage Trust is a registered charity, formed in 2014 to look after the 400-year-old Jacobean manor Charlton House & Gardens (a Grade 1 listed building), as well as other key structures, objects, and historic records within the Royal Borough of Greenwich.
We care for important historic buildings such as Charlton House, Charlton Assembly Rooms, Tudor Barn in Eltham, the Museum Collections and Archive of Royal Greenwich, as well as a number of key memorials. Our aim is to ensure the future of the Royal borough of Greenwich's rich heritage, whilst bringing that heritage to life for everyone, through exhibitions, tours, walks and activities.
The aims of the Trust are:
Learning · To help people learn and find out about the history and heritage of our borough
Access · To promote the use of the buildings, grounds and collections in our care
Conservation · To care for our heritage buildings for the benefit of the public and future generations
A whole lotta history!
