I'm proper Brixton, SW2.
SW9 is Stockwell, plus a bit of Brixton overspill - kinda like Brixton's version of Milton Keynes.

It really doesn't matter, who cares about a postcode?Brixton is SW9 the others are Brixton Hill wannabes.
Does it matter that the town hall & the council offices are in SW2? Of course not.
Does it matter that Foxton's favourite new development "Brixton" Square is in SW9? Don't be silly.
SW9 is just as much Brixton as all the places that are actually in Brixton, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
That would be Lambeth town hall and some of its offices.I give you from that Brixtonish site Urban:It really doesn't matter, who cares about a postcode?

I won't be able to get there until about 9 (don't finish work until 7.30 and have to go and vote too) but will get there. I won't know anyone so be prepared for someone who looks a bit lost.

Several SW4 post codes are metres from Brixton tube too. I like to call the area Clarmton

Seen these up around Brixton
Maybe they do. I'm even prepared to believe that it works - I've certainly heard of American civilians using it in the summer. The trouble is that not everyone likes the smell of lavender, and it tastes disgusting. This might not sound like a problem, until social kissing is involved, or you decide to lick your fingers after finishing a sandwich etc.

This is a myth or at least part-myth that has been going around for decades, including in the midge-ridden parts of Scotland. Even if the army does use it, any proper tests done on it seem to indicate that it is fairly much ineffective.

As in quite a few hundred less than other Brixton postcodes

Um, possibly, but I'd have to leave the instruments behind otherwise it gets too complex.

That's a really odd postcode boundary. Does anyone know how/why they are established?

Isn't it? I demand answers.
Look at Ballater rd - where my friends have always claimed they were in Clapham, but they are not. While other friends, across the road, and therefore nearer to Brixton, apparently are!

Uniting all postcodes is tonight's beautiful full moon, just come over the rooftops of Brixton town.
Oh you old romantic.

It was a cracking moon though.
I had an early night, in fact i have had a week of them. Perhaps i am becoming an old fart but i will never wear slippers nor a dressing gown.
There should be some sort of election theme especially what with it being election day and in former Tory party HQ. We could all burn our polling cards in front of each other. Out the front of course, we wouldn't want to do that in the building.
It's just divvying up the work of delivering mail I think. The number allocates which office is responsible.
With the exception of 1 it then goes alphabetically. SW2 Brixton, SW3 Chelsea, SW4 Clapham etc.

yeah, but look at Solon road. It goes SW2, SW4, SW2 then SW4 again. there must be a reason, but what is it? Similar wobble in the boundary near Clapham North tube station.

Google maps might not be bang on accurate either so maybe in reality Solon road isn't quite so bizarre
