Stockwell
Human settlement in England
About
Stockwell is an urban district located in the SW9 postcode area of South London, England. It is now part of the London Borough of Lambeth. Before 1889, it was part of Surrey.
It was developed in the nineteenth century as an architecturally elegant middle class suburb, some of the buildings of which remain. However, in the second half of the twentieth century, much social housing for low-income tenants was developed there.
