St Mary's Church, Greenwich was a church that once stood on King William Walk in central Greenwich in London between 1823 and 1935. As Greenwich's population expanded in the early nineteenth century, there was a need for a second Anglican church in Greenwich to support the existing parish church at St Alfege Church, Greenwich. St Alfege was rebuilt in the 1710s by Nicholas Hawksmoor, but had been the site of a church since the medieval era. St Mary's was located on the edge of Greenwich Park. It was designed by the architect George Basevi in neo-classical style with the construction lasting from 1823 to 1825. There were hints of the style of John Soane, of whom Basevi had been an apprentice. It was demolished in 1935. Its place is now taken by a statue of William IV that was moved there from King William Street in the City of London. The site of the former church now sits on an approach to the National Maritime Museum.

Royal Hill, Greenwich is a mainly residential street, approximately 0.7 km (0.4 mi) long, in Greenwich in South London. It runs uphill off Greenwich High Road in a southwards curve and then westwards to meet Greenwich South Street. At the northern end of the road is Greenwich Town Hall, a 1939 Art Deco building designed by Clifford Culpin. A number of Georgian era houses are located along the road. The Pevsner Guide describes much of the road as "the usual suburban expansion" which was "filling in between the more scattered eighteenth century houses". Royal Hill was once the name of the entire hill rather than just the street, and so other roads in the area are historically referred to as Royal Hill, including Point Hill which ascends south towards Blackheath.

Greenwich Theatre is a local theatre located in Croom's Hill close to the centre of Greenwich in south-east London. Theatre first came to Greenwich at the beginning of the 19th century during the famous Eastertide Greenwich Fair at which the Richardson travelling theatre annually performed. The current Greenwich Theatre is the heir to two former traditions. It stands on the site of the Rose and Crown Music Hall built in 1855 on Crooms Hill at the junction with Nevada Street. But it takes its name from the New Greenwich Theatre built in 1864 by Sefton Parry on London Street, opposite what was then the terminus of the London and Greenwich Railway.

The Baltic Exchange Memorial Glass comprises several stained glass windows designed by English artist John Dudley Forsyth which were installed over a staircase at the Baltic Exchange in London in 1922, as a memorial to the members of the exchange who were killed while serving during the First World War. The memorial glass was damaged in an IRA bombing in 1992. With funding from Swiss Re, the memorial glass was restored by glass conservators Goddard & Gibbs, and has been displayed at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich since 2005. The memorial forms a hemispherical half-dome about 3 metres (9.8 ft) high, with 240 panels divided into five sectors, with five rectangular windows of painted coloured glass, each of which features a personification of one of the virtues – Truth, Hope, Justice, Fortitude and Faith. The dome is replete with classical and religious symbolism, featuring a winged figure of Victory stepping from a boat into a classical temple, accompanied by Roman soldiers, putti, a dove symbolising peace, the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom, and armorial shields and badges for the territories of the British Empire. Two panels, one to either side, list battles in the First World War – Cambrai, Mezières, Arras and Lens, Galipoli, and Messines Ridge to the left; and Bethune, Salonika, Ypres and Loos, Givenchy, Paschendaele to the right. The glass was put together by Lowndes & Drury at The Glass House, Fulham. It was unveiled by General Sir Herbert Alexander Lawrence on 1 June 1922, and dedicated by the Bishop of Willesden William Perrin. It replaced clear glazed windows and dome included on the north side of the exchange when it was rebuilt in 1903. Originally, it was accompanied by marble panels listing the 61 dead, which had been installed earlier and unveiled on 16 July 1920. The glass survived the Second World War intact, but suffered damage in an IRA bombing on 10 April 1992. Only 45 of the 240 panels of the dome were left intact, The other panels, and all five of the windows, suffered damage. Plans to rebuild the Baltic Exchange were abandoned when the extent of the damage became clear. The remnants of the old building were demolished in 1998, and replaced by 30 St Mary Axe (nicknamed the Gherkin) where the glazed rooftop dome refers back to the dome of the Baltic Exchange. The marble panels were installed at the Baltic Exchange's new building at 38 St Mary Axe.
