  • The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets the Tower Was the Seat of Royal
    The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets The Tower was the seat of Royal power, in addition to being the Sovereign’s oldest palace, it was the holding prison for competitors and threats, and the custodian of the Sovereign’s monopoly of armed force until the consolidation of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich in 1805. As such, the Tower Hamlets’ traditional provision of its citizens as a loyal garrison to the Tower was strategically significant, as its possession and protection influenced national history. Possession of the Tower conserved a foothold in the capital, even for a sovereign who had lost control of the City or Westminster. As such, the loyalty of the Constable and his garrison throughout the medieval, Tudor and Stuart eras was critical to a sovereign’s (and from 1642 to 1660, Parliament’s) power-base. The ancient Ossulstone Hundred of the County of Middlesex was that bordering the City to the north and east. With the expansion of the City in the later Medieval period, Ossulstone was divided into four divisions; the Tower Division, also known as Tower Hamlets. The Tower Hamlets were the military jurisdiction of the Constable of the Tower, separate from the lieutenancy powers of the remainder of Middlesex. Accordingly, the Tower Hamlets were sometimes referred to as a county-within-a-county. The Constable, with the ex- officio appointment of Lord Lieutenant of Tower Hamlets, held the right to call upon citizens of the Tower Hamlets to fulfil garrison guard duty at the Tower. Early references of the unique responsibility of the Tower Hamlets during the reign of Bloody Mary show that in 1554 the Privy Council ordered Sir Richard Southwell and Sir Arthur Darcye to muster the men of the Tower Hamlets "whiche owe their service to the Towre, and to give commaundement that they may be in aredynes for the defence of the same”1.

  • Woolwich History Walks
    ROYAL GREENWICH HERITAGE Woolwich TRUST History Walks trails start here discover woolwich The Royal Arsenal and Woolwich is imbued with history, much of which is linked with the British military. The former was responsible for the vast majority of developing, testing and processing weapons of war for the British Army and Navy for over 300 years, employing more than 80,000 at its peak and making it one of the most significant manufacturing sites in the UK. Until recently, much of what went on inside the walls of the Royal Arsenal was kept secret. Today, as a result of its decommission in the 1990s and subsequent revival and redevelopment, much of it is open for the public to experience and explore. These military roots have extended throughout Woolwich, the remnants of which are still present today. WHICH TRAIL WOULD YOU LIKE TO FOLLOW? Royal Arsenal Walk The Royal Arsenal Walk highlights a selection of the most impressive foundries, factories and warehouses in the compound, that were integral to the production of British weapons.

Following a fire in 1802 surviving artefacts were housed in the Old Military Academy building, and then the main collection was moved to the Rotunda on Woolwich Common in 1820 where it remained until 2001. This museum was distinct from the Royal Artillery Regimental Museum (opened in 1946) which set up in another part of Woolwich and was run by the Royal Artillery Institution (RAI, founded 1838), an organisation that is funded by subscriptions from serving officers and is the custodian of the Regiment's heritage. There were no guns in the Regimental Museum, but rather items of personal property such as uniforms, hats and telescopes. The regimental museum was supported by the Government (civil service staff) until the late 1980s/early 1990s when it became entirely the Regiment's responsibility.

  • These Notes Were Created As Research for the Historic England Heritage Schools Local History Timeline for the Royal Borough of Greenwich
    Brief history of Greenwich These notes were created as research for the Historic England Heritage Schools local history timeline for the Royal Borough of Greenwich. There is so much more information than we could possibly fit on the twenty-one timeline slides. The notes take the story of the Greenwich area from its earliest inhabitants up to the modern day, tracing the evolution of the borough. The story of Greenwich is set in the context of national and sometimes international events, as they shaped the local area. The local evidence for historical events is highlighted in blue in the text. There is also a focus on how history affects the built environment, influencing building styles, art, and architecture. Key building styles and local examples are highlighted in red. There is also a little explanation about the date notation, as this changes over time, from Years Ago, when dealing with the very distant past, to AD for the last 2,000 years. All dates are highlighted in green. Many images of local buildings can be accessed in the Historic England online archive: http://archive.historicengland.org.uk, while photos of listed buildings can be found here: http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk. Links to further resources to support the timeline Enquiry Questions are also provided at the end of this document. We hope this resource will be of interest to teachers and help them answer any questions they or their pupils have about their local heritage. All images used in this resource are © Trustees of the British Museum Prehistory Early humans first evolved in Africa and gradually spread into the Middle East, Asia, Europe and beyond.
