  • 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.
