Greenwich Hospital, Kent

The Royal Hospital for Seaman at Greenwich was founded by William III and Queen Mary II in 1694. From 1705 the Hospital provided residential accommodation for maimed and destitute Naval seamen - the Greenwich Pensioners - of whom it housed 2710 at its largest in 1814, with many more 'out-Pensioners' dependent on it. This is one of many prints of the Hospital dating from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
