Lambeth, a district (302,960 inhabitants) abutting on the right bank of the Thames, opposite Westminster and between Southwark and Battersea, extends south in a strip between Camberwell and Wandsworth; but its more interesting parts are all near the river. It is most directly reached from the West End via Westminster Bridge.
