Trinity Hospital, Greenwich


Trinity Hospital, is a group of almshouses between Greenwich Power Station and the Old Royal Naval College on the south bank of the River Thames at Greenwich, London, England.
It was originally built in 1613-14 by Henry Howard, Earl of Northampton, on the site of Lumley House. Howard set up his charity in 1613 for 12 'poor men' of Greenwich and eight from his birthplace in Norfolk, hence the name Norfolk College by which the almshouses were also known. It was one of three Trinity almshouses founded in the last year of Howard's life, the others being in Clun, Shropshire and Shotesham, Norfolk.
It was rebuilt in 1812 in Gothic style.
It is a Grade II* listed building.
