People People
Historically related to Greenwich are King Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth I, Lord Nelson, Admiral Hardy, General Wolfe, Henry Earl of Romney and Charles Dickens. But today, and here in the market, you can meet some charming stallholders.

With the sudden death of George, our market character, a part of Greenwich Market was taken away. We miss you George!
