Greenwich was a parliamentary constituency in south-east London, which returned Members of Parliament to the House of Commons of the UK Parliament from 1832 to 1997 (by the first past the post system).

History

From 1832 until 1885 it was a two-member constituency. Its area was cut and it was reduced to a seat under the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 associated with the Reform Act 1884. For the 1997 general election, it was merged with part of the former Woolwich constituency to form the Greenwich and Woolwich seat.

Greenwich in the County of London 1918–49
wards of Greenwich Metropolitan Borough in 1916
Greenwich in the County of London 1950–74

Its history is dominated by the area's strong maritime tradition. Its most prominent claim to fame was as the seat of William Ewart Gladstone between 1868 and 1880, and it also achieved prominence in the 1987 Greenwich by-election, when the SDP won a surprise victory.

Boundaries

1885-1918: The civil parishes of Greenwich, St Nicholas, Deptford, Charlton, and Kidbrooke.
