The Royal Observatory in Greenwich is the historic home of British astronomy, Greenwich Mean Time and the world-famous Meridian Line. Established in the 17th century, it was from here that the great scientists of the time precisely mapped the stars to help navigate at sea.

We took a step back in time to learn about the railway and the Royal Observatory’s roles in spreading Greenwich Mean Time across the country, and their sometimes tumultuous relationship, which led to a railway tunnel under Blackheath.
