About

Vauxhall ward sits on the south bank of the River Thames, directly opposite the Pimlico area of Westminster. The district is a key transport interchange, centred around its major railway station and bus terminus. Its riverfront is dominated by the distinctive MI6 building and the modern developments of the St George Wharf complex. The area contains a mix of high-rise residential towers and older, lower-rise housing estates from the post-war period.

Inland from the Thames, the ward includes parts of the Oval neighbourhood, known for its namesake cricket ground. The area is characterised by major traffic routes like Kennington Lane and South Lambeth Road. Vauxhall Park provides a green space within the largely built-up environment. The former Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens site is now occupied by Spring Gardens, a small housing development that references the area's historical entertainment past.
