Greenwich Foot Tunnel

The Greenwich Foot Tunnel crosses beneath the River Thames linking Greenwich in the south with the Isle of Dogs to the north. It was opened 1902 to allow south London labourers to walk to work in the Isle of Dogs.



Royal College and the Queen's House across the River Thames.



Taking the lift down



The tunnel is 370 m long and 50 m deep under the River Thames




The tunnel is classed as a public highway and therefore by law is kept open 24 hours a day.



Taking the lift up



Coming out from the tunnel



We came up on the other side of the Thames
