The Green Man was situated at 67 Plumstead High Street. This pub was known as O'Dowds at time of closure in 2014.
 
Woolwich Arsenal used the the Green Man as changing rooms on Good Friday, 1893 in their fixture against Milwall in the Second Division , played at the Manor Field before the construction of the Manor Ground itself.

The Green Man was also a rock music venue in the 70s and 80s. There was a fairly large room behind the main bar, and a stage with a small dressing room to the right of it. Pub rock bands played there most Fridays amd/Saturdays, but it was not as organised as some of the famous pub rock venues north of the river, like the Half Moon or The Cricketers.
I and my friends, underage for drinking, were welcome there, and had many enjoyable evenings.
