| Description: Croom's Hill with Greenwich Park to the right, looking north, down the hill. Croom's Hill may be the oldest street in London. Its name is derived from the Celtic or Saxon 'crom' or 'crum', meaning crooked, and suggests the most convenient path joining the ancient fishing village of Greenwich to the high tableland above. |
