Grand Square
@meganwest
The Grand Square is in the centre of the Old Royal Naval College. This was built in 1696 on the site of the former Greenwich Palace. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren, the buildings have served various purposes, including a naval hospital and college. Today, they house the University of Greenwich and the Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. The site is renowned for its historical significance and architectural grandeur, and it has become a popular filming location.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi I'm Megan! I enjoy slow travel and really spending time in places to get to know them better. I'm currently living in London and I've gotten to know it pretty well, so I figured I'd make some guides. I love showing people around the city and planning trips around Europe. I hope to use my knowledge of travel and curious nature to share fun and interesting guides here on Thatch!
