GREENFORD, in the vale, a village two miles south of Harrow on the Hill. GREENHILL’S _rents_, Smithfield bars.† GREENLAND _stairs_. Deptford. GREEN _lane_, 1. Lambeth. 2. Tottenham Court fields. GREEN LETTICE _court_, Fore street, Cripplegate.* GREEN LETTICE _lane_, Canon street.* GREEN _market_, Leadenhall street. GREEN _Park_, between St. James’s Park and Hyde Park. This Park adds greatly to the pleasantness of the houses which are situated so as to overlook it, among which the most conspicuous by far is that lately built by Mr. Spencer. Altogether it appears very noble, but considering it as a front, we are disappointed in not seeing any entrance, which surely should have been made conspicuous. The pediment being extended over so many columns is too large and heavy, and the bow window has no relation at all to the building, and offends every eye; but the figures and vases on the top have indeed a fine effect. The irregularity of the other side or principal front (which is in St. James’s Place) is excusable, as the adjoining houses can’t yet be purchased, but the flatness of it, having no columns or great projections, will always make it subordinate to the side that fronts the Park, which is that we have given a view of in the print. GREEN’S _court_, Lothbury.† GREEN’S _rents_, Bride lane, Fleet street.† GREEN SCHOOL _court_, London Wall. GREEN _street_, 1. Near Grosvenor square. 2. Leicester fields. 3. Theobald’s row. GREEN _walk_, 1. Broad Wall. 2. Gravel lane. GREENWICH, a very pleasant town in Kent, situated six miles from London, has been the birth place of several of our Monarchs, particularly Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth: and here King Edward VI. died. Their palace was first erected by Humphry Duke of Gloucester, who named it Placentia. This palace was enlarged by Henry VII. and completed by Henry VIII. but being afterwards suffered to run to ruin, was pulled down by King Charles II. who began another, a most magnificent edifice, and lived to see the first wing finished. See GREENWICH HOSPITAL. King Charles II. also enlarged the park, walled it round, planted it, and caused a royal observatory to be erected on the top of the steep of the hill. This edifice his Majesty erected for the use of the celebrated Mr. Flamstead, and it still retains the name of that great astronomer: his Majesty likewise furnished it with mathematical instruments for astronomical observations, and a deep dry well for observing the stars in the day time. That which is properly the palace here, is an edifice of no great extent, and it is now converted into apartments for the Governor of the Royal Hospital, and the Ranger of the park. This park is well stocked with deer, and affords a noble and delightful view of the fine hospital, the river Thames, and the city of London.
