Lambeth
Lambeth is a London borough in south London, England, which forms a part of Inner London. Its name was recorded in 1062 as Lambehitha, translating as 'landing place for lambs', and in 1255 as Lambeth. The borough covers an overall area of around 10.36 square miles. Lambeth is a long, thin borough, being about 3 miles (4.8 km) wide and 7 miles (11 km) long. Brixton is its civic centre, and you will find other town centres.
The largest shopping areas are (in order of size) Streatham, Brixton, Vauxhall, Clapham and West Norwood. The borough is the home of the geographical centre of London at Frazier Street near Lambeth North tube station. Based on population estimates made in the middle of 2014, Lambeth features a permanent population of about 318216 inhabitants. Despite the borough's population density, Lambeth has open spaces. They include Brockwell Park and Lido, Streatham Common, half of Clapham Common, West Norwood Cemetery, Archbishop's Park, Norbury Park, Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens and Ruskin and Kennington Parks.
Along and around the South Bank, a tourist area has developed around the previous Greater London Council headquarters of County Hall along with the Southbank Centre and National Theatre. Also on the river is the London Eye and Shell Centre. Nearby is St Thomas' Hospital, Lambeth Palace plus the Florence Nightingale Museum. A landmark inside the centre of the borough is the Art Deco Sunlight Laundry on Acre Lane. Nearby is Brixton, home of Lambeth Town Hall along with the Brixton Murals.
