Local guide
About Eltham
Eltham is far from London, but it has good transport links into the city and is just a couple of miles from Greenwich town centre. Home to a thriving, residential community, Eltham is a picturesque town, ideal for some peace and quiet. The town is steeped in history and is populated by a lot of Tudor and Art Deco architecture. Henry VIII, one of Britain’s most notorious Kings, spent a lot of time at Eltham Palace and Gardens – today, you can visit the Palace and enjoy wondering around the immaculate grounds.
