Greenwich Pier is on the south bank of the River Thames in Greenwich, London. It was built in 1836 to cater for the many paddle steamers that brought visitors on day trips to Greenwich from London further up river.[1] At the time, London's urban area did not extend as far out as Greenwich.
The pier is currently owned by London River Services and is used by various river operators, running public cruise services to and from Central London. It is immediately adjacent to the Cutty Sark and is within easy walking distance of a variety of other popular attractions. It was refurbished in 2004 and again in March 2018.[2][3]
Services
Greenwich Pier is a major stop for a number of river operators including:
- Uber Boat by Thames Clippers, which operates a commuter catamaran service between Greenwich and Central London, via Embankment, Tower Millennium Pier and Canary Wharf. This service also extends down river to The O2 and Barking Riverside Pier.
