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 approximately 10.36 square miles. Lambeth is a long, thin borough, being about 3 miles (4.8 km) wide and seven miles (11 km) long. Brixton is its civic centre, and you can find other town centres.
The largest shopping places 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 close to Lambeth North tube station. According to population estimates made during 2014, Lambeth includes a permanent population of about 318216 people. Despite the borough's population density, Lambeth has open spaces.
