Area guide

Moving to or from South London: what to know

South London covers boroughs such as Lambeth, Southwark, Lewisham, Greenwich, Wandsworth, Bexley, Bromley and Croydon. It ranges from busy inner neighbourhoods like Brixton and Peckham to suburban areas like Eltham, Sidcup and Bromley.

Rail is the main way around much of South London, alongside the Northern and Victoria lines, the DLR into Greenwich and Lewisham, and the London Overground. River crossings, including the Blackwall Tunnel and the Dartford Crossing, connect it to east London and Essex.

Victorian terraces and conversion flats are common, along with newer developments along the river at Greenwich, Woolwich and Nine Elms. Planning parking and timing around river crossings is important for moves to and from Essex.
