Extremely crowded and to actually go over it you have to pay £18 ticket per person!!! But if you don’t want to visit the Observatory, just below the court where the Prime Meridian is located, there’s a small black gate, go through it and you’ll find an extension of the Meridian where you can take photos for free and away from the masses of tourists. You’re welcome!
Not on anyone's list, found do to a local that overheard another couple talking about it @ the sundial.
Good place to avoid high entrance fee at the museum and just want to step between the line.
Easy to find from bus stop and 10min walk from boat.
Greenwich town is a lovely town to walk around.

When we say GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), this is it. You can stand with one leg in the East and one leg in the West. This is where time originally was tracked. This is also where world coordinates originated. Every day since 1833 the time-ball drops at 1pm to tell Londoners the exact time. Great exhibit on time keeping. There is also a great view of the London skyline.
Free!! If you're not interested in spending many pounds going into the Royal Observatory (which I wasn't), then this is a free place to straddle the prime meridian. No traffic either.
If you don’t want to pay to go to the fancy one, this one is perfect! There’s a plaque on the wall in front of a house and a metal line on the ground, both great for taking quick photos. Not a busy area at all, so you don’t have to wait in line or fight for a space.
The plaque itself is literally on a wall outside someones house. I thought it would have its own museum. The park right behind is beautiful though and has a sun dial.
The first plaque marking the Meridian Line is located on the garden wall of a house opposite Feathers Place in Park
Vista. The Line is also marked by a metal strip on the pavement and a row of 13 metal studs in the road.
