De Beauvoir Cycle Gang Strikes Again

Yeah, I knew there were a couple of exceptions but I couldn't be bothered to google them. Wonder why that is. Was Battersea renamed or something? I guess Crystal Palace was not part of London when they formed them maybe?

SW11 Battersea
SW12 Balham
SW13 Barnes
SW14 Mortlake
SW15 Putney
SW16 Streatham
SW17 Tooting
SW18 Wandsworth
SW19 Wimbledon

SW19 also includes the area of Merton, but is / was served by the Wimbledon Sorting Office.

The point is that people get hung up on postcodes, rigidly defining the area from its postcode, whereas the demographic, social, economic & political reality is more complicated. Eg N1 includes prosperous Barnsbury, disadvantaged Hoxton & is in both the boroughs of Hackney & Islington.
