The London Borough of Greenwich was formed by the amalgamation of the Metropolitan Borough of Greenwich and part of the Metropolitan Borough of Woolwich to the east. It became a 'Royal' Borough on the 3rd February 2012, to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II and because of its historic links with the Royal Family.
