King William Walk

The western side of the street comprises a mixture of residential and commercial properties, with several shops, restaurants and, south of Nelson Road, two pubs.

The eastern side includes the Discover Greenwich Visitor Centre and several former College buildings and open spaces today used by the University of Greenwich, including residential accommodation in Devonport House, south of Nelson Road.

The street was originally part of the Medieval centre of Greenwich and was known as Friars Road after a pre-Reformation Franciscan friary built to the west of the Palace of Placentia.

Originally it stood in King William Street in the City of London but was relocated to Greenwich in 1935.

[4] At the southern end, by the Greenwich Tavern pub, King William Walk is joined by the short Nevada Street; from Nevada Street's western end, Croom's Hill runs southwards up the west side of Greenwich Park towards Blackheath, London.
