South London
At its widest extent, south London is the part of Greater London that is south of the River Thames. This includes the historic central areas of Southwark and Bankside and maritime Greenwich. The area has little of the London Underground network, but has a much more extensive suburban railway system than North London and is the location of all of London's tram services. This area is made up of the London boroughs of Bexley, Bromley, Croydon, Greenwich, Kingston, Lambeth, Lewisham, Merton, Southwark, Sutton and Wandsworth. Aside from the official definitions, South London refers to areas south of Central London and the River Thames. This area overlaps the informal Central, South East and South West London areas. Some of these districts are included in the South Eastern and South Western postcode areas. Brixton is an area of the London Borough of Lambeth, in inner-South London. It is bordered by Stockwell, Clapham Common, Streatham, Camberwell, Tulse Hill and Herne Hill. Clapham Common is a triangular area of grassland of about 220 acres in size, situated between Clapham, Battersea and Balham in south London, England. It was historically common land for the parishes of Battersea and Clapham, but was converted to parkland under the terms of the Metropolitan Commons Act 1878.
West End
The West End of London is an area of Central London, England, containing many of the city's major tourist attractions, businesses, headquarters and the commercial West End theatres. Use of the term began in the early 19th century to describe fashionable areas to the west of Charing Cross. For strategic planning the area is identified as one of two international centres in the London Plan. Located to the west of the historic Roman and Mediaeval City of London, the West End was long favoured by the rich elite as a place of residence because it was usually upwind of the smoke drifting from the crowded City. It was also located close to the royal seat of power at Westminster, and is largely contained within the City of Westminster (one of the 32 London boroughs). Developed in the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it was originally built as a series of palaces, expensive town houses, fashionable shops and places of entertainment. The areas closest to the City around Holborn, Seven Dials and Covent Garden historically contained poorer communities that were cleared and redeveloped in the nineteenth century.
The name "West End" is a flexible term with different meanings in different contexts. It may refer to the entertainment district around Leicester Square and Covent Garden; to the shopping district centred on Oxford Street, Regent Street, and Bond Street (but the geographically distinct shopping district around Knightsbridge would also be counted as "West End Shopping" by some); or, less commonly, to the whole of that part of Central London (itself an area with no generally agreed boundaries) which lies to the west of the City of London. Well known a streets in the West End Albemarle Street, Baker Street, Bond Street, Carnaby Street, Charing Cross Road, Denmark Street, Gower Street, Great Marlborough Street, Great Portland Street, Harley Street, Haymarket, High Holborn, Kingsway, Old Compton Street, Oxford Street, Park Lane, Piccadilly, Regent Street, Shaftesbury Avenue, The Strand, Tottenham Court Road, Wardour Street
East London
East London is the name commonly given to the north eastern part of London, England on the north side of the River Thames. The London boroughs that make up this informal area are Barking & Dagenham, Hackney, Havering, Newham, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest. East London is today an area of regeneration, with a rising population. The redevelopment of the Docklands area began in the early 1980s.
