What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Greenwich Palace as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Greenwich Palace was built by King Henry VIII in the early 16th century, with construction beginning around 1514. It is important as a key example of early Tudor architecture and as a former royal residence that later became the site of the Royal Hospital for Seamen, designed by Christopher Wren.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
