It's "North Greenwich", which is nowhere near what the locals would call
Greenwich. The actual centre of Greenwich is between the Cutty Sark and
Greenwich DLR stations. But don't try changing from the Jubilee to DLR
at Canary Wharf because it's a long way to walk. It would be much better
to get an overground train to Greenwich (probably from Charing Cross,
walk from Embankment tube, having changed at Hammersmith).


Yeah, I was thinking the overground train would be better since it
brings you quickly to Greenwich (town), and also Maze Hill. Though
I think most of them leave from Cannon Street, through London Bridge.
So that would be the District Line from Hammersmith to Cannon Street.
If you go to London Bridge then you're probably taking the Jubilee Line
anyway, so you might as well stay on and take a 188 bus from
North Greenwich.

I expect the overground trains aren't as tourist friendly as the tube.
