The 1998 Greenwich Borough Council election took place on 7 May 1998 to elect members of Greenwich Council in London, England. The whole council was up for election and the Labour Party stayed in overall control of the council.
The election saw a number of independent candidates contest seats and the election saw candidates standing as Greens against the Millennium Dome, Conservatives Against Town Hall Corruption, Populist Keep Our Pound and the Corrective Party.
