The Royal Hospital Naval School at Greenwich

Unread post by Pelican »

Entrance to The Royal Hospital Naval School, Greenwich
The School was founded in 1712 as part of Greenwich Hospital, a 'charitable institution for the aged, infirm or young', and was established to provide boys from seafaring backgrounds with the rare privilege of learning arithmetic and navigation. It was at this time located in the spectacular buildings which now house the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London.
