Bishop's ward was an administrative division of the London Borough of Lambeth, United Kingdom, from 1965 to 2022
It was located in the north of the borough, bounded by the river Thames, and contained many well known London sites including the Southbank Centre, the London Eye, the Old and New Vic theatres, County Hall and Lambeth Palace. It also contained Waterloo station and St Thomas Hospital.
Bishop's ward was located in the Vauxhall parliamentary constituency and is one of four wards in the borough's north Lambeth division.
The Lambeth Council State of the Borough 2014 report found that Bishop's was the least residential ward of the borough. [1] It had the lowest ward population (10,600), with a low proportion of children – over 80% of residents are working age, with many born outside UK. It has the highest number of jobs and the highest employment per head of resident working age population. Health outcomes, such as life expectancy and childhood obesity are typical of the borough. It had the highest proportion of Asian residents in the borough.
Although the riverside areas are affluent, household income in most of the rest of the ward was comparable with the borough as a whole. Housing tenure was similar to the borough as a whole – 21% home owners, 42% Social rented, 34% private rented. It had the highest proportion of flats, and house prices are high - 30% of dwellings are in the higher council tax (property tax) bands F, G or H. Bishop͛s had the highest ward crime rate figures as of 2013 [update] , especially violence against the person and theft and handling – this is associated with large numbers of people in the ward at Waterloo station and the South Bank.
