This is an ancient road which winds its way up from West Greenwich to Blackheath. It also forms the western boundary of Greenwich Park.

Although of Georgian appearance many of the houses in Crooms Hill were built in earlier centuries and refaced in the 18th century.

Cecil Day-Lewis, the poet, lived at No.6 until his death in 1972.

No.9 stands out with its blue painted weather-boarding.
