Greenwich Heritage Centre, Local museum in Royal Arsenal, United Kingdom
The Greenwich Heritage Centre occupies a historic building in Artillery Square, featuring permanent exhibitions about the Royal Arsenal's development through centuries.
The structure, designed by James Wyatt between 1783 and 1785, initially served as a sea storehouse for the Board of Ordnance military supplies.
The museum collections include local authority records, books, periodicals, maps, prints, and photographs that document the area's social development.
Visitors can access study areas to examine library resources, including parish registers, census data, local directories, and electoral registers.
The building transformed from ammunition manufacturing during World War I to Customs and Excise stores until the Arsenal's closure in 1994.
