Dating back to 1613, Trinity Hospital is the oldest surviving building in Greenwich town centre. The hospital was founded as almshouses by Henry Howard, Earl of Northampton.

A board near its entrance reads:

Since 1617 it has provided a home for 21 retired gentlemen of Greenwich.

The hospital was rebuilt in 1812 in its present Gothic style, and is still in use.
