A Greenwich pensioner was the Royal navy Naval equivalent of a Chelsea pensioner . Although the initial concept of a Greenwich pensioner was that of someone living in the Greenwich Hospital London Royal Hospital Greenwich , the institution became responsible for the payment of pension s in 1804 taking over the responsibility from the Chatham Chest . Consequentially, an ex sailor or ex Royal Marine living in Royal Hospital Greenwich would be known as an in Pensioner. Those persons who were in receipt of a pension, but lived elsewhere, were known as out pensioners . It was permissible for out pensioners to apply for entry to Greenwich, thereby relinquishing their out pension. In common with the union workhouse s of the 19th century, the families of the men were not allowed to reside with the men. If a resident wished to leave the hospital, they were free to do so. If they wanted to re enter, they would have to wait until a year had passed. The residents were bound by militarised rules and regulations. Like their contemporaries at Chelsea, they wore a uniform of tricorne hat s, albeit with blue coats. Pensioners who broke the rules would have to wear a yellow coat, known as a canary , and would have to perform menial tasks while wearing this garment. Greenwich pensioners adopted a standardised uniform long before the Royal Navy. Greenwich pensioners were in residence from 1705 to 1869, and acquired the nickname Greenwich geese from the townspeople of Greenwich . The lifestyle of Greenwich Pensioners is brought to life as part of the Discover Greenwich tourist attraction in the Pepys Building.
