Southwark
The London Borough of Southwark in south London, England forms a part of Inner London and is connected by bridges across the River Thames to the City of London. It was created in 1965 when 3 smaller council areas amalgamated under the London Government Act 1963. This included the former area of the Metropolitan Borough of Southwark, the Metropolitan Borough of Camberwell, plus the Metropolitan Borough of Bermondsey. All districts of the area are inside the London postal district.
It borders the City of London and the London Borough of Tower Hamlets to the north, with the River Thames forming the boundary, the London Borough of Lambeth towards the west and also the London Borough of Lewisham to the east. Towards the south are the London Boroughs of Bromley and Croydon. Southwark features a wide variety of housing, which includes council housing, including the post-Blitz Aylesbury Estate and the Heygate Estate to provide homes to low-income residents. About 31 percent of householders are owner-occupiers.
