The Romano-Celtic temple in Greenwich Park is a scheduled ancient monument of Romano-British date, positioned within the historic parkland of Greenwich in south-east London. The temple represents a characteristic example of Romano-Celtic religious architecture, a building type that emerged during the Roman occupation of Britain when Celtic religious practices were adapted within the framework of Roman provincial culture. Archaeological investigation has identified structural remains consistent with the typical plan of such temples, which commonly featured a small inner chamber or cella surrounded by a portico or ambulatory. The site contributes to understanding the religious life of Roman Britain and the syncretic nature of worship during this period of cultural contact and transformation.
