    Paul Redenius is a student in class 10b who provided information about Greenwich in London. Greenwich is located south of the Thames River, covers 110 hectares, and was formerly home to the British Navy and English monarchs. The oldest market in London, Greenwich Market, has strong royal connections and is a place to find art and crafts. Greenwich Castle was originally built as a tower with a moat in 1433 and reconstructed in 1525, now housing the Greenwich Observatory, which was established in 1675 by King Charles II and was used to define the Prime Meridian.
