Many locations upstream of Greenwich, and a few town centers downstream!

Downstream means a lengthy passage around the peninsula and through the
Thames Barrier, just to reach Woolwich,


You mean around Docklands?


Aidan said downstream from Greenwich, so that's what I was referring to
- the downstream route around the North Greenwich peninsula.


Doh! Good point. We'll just have to wait for the Bugsby's Ship Canal to
make that leg a bit quicker ...
