Dulwich Hill is an electoral ward in the London Borough of Southwark in south England, sitting on a gentle ridge between Dulwich village and Peckham. It’s characterised by leafy streets and a mix of Victorian and Edwardian housing, with handy access to green spaces such as Dulwich Park and Peckham Rye Park, giving it a semi-suburban, village-like feel within the city.
The ward combines long-standing local communities with newer commuters and professionals, supporting independent cafes, pubs and shops alongside active residents’ groups. Good transport links via East Dulwich and North Dulwich stations (and frequent buses into central London) make it popular with families and professionals, while nearby cultural assets like the historic Dulwich Picture Gallery add to its strong local character.
