About

Vauxhall South sits along the Albert Embankment on the south bank of the Thames. The area is anchored by Vauxhall station, which combines the Victoria line, Overground and National Rail services with a large bus interchange at Vauxhall Cross. St George’s Wharf and its tall residential tower rise beside the river, and a riverside walk links the wharves and piers. The SIS building occupies a riverside site at Vauxhall Cross, its curved office block a familiar landmark viewed from the bridge and embankment.

The neighbourhood mixes housing, small shops and light industrial plots clustered around South Lambeth Road and Kennington Lane. Vauxhall Park provides public green space a short walk inland, and the old footprint of the 18th‑century Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens is reflected in street names and older maps. Local services include a commuter pier at St George’s Wharf, several pubs and a long‑standing bus garage, which together shape everyday life in Vauxhall South rather than a single visitor attraction.
