Originally known as the Woolwich Warren, The Arsenal, Dockyard and Ropeyard at Woolwich formed, in their time, the largest military-industrial complex in Europe. At its peak, during World War I, the Royal Arsenal extended over some 1300 acres (5.3 km²) and employed around 80,000 people.
This area is now home to the Greenwich heritage museum and Firepower- the museum of the Royal Artillery. Also a development of luxury flats with the Royal Artillery Quays (top right) on the former gunnery fields.
