Boundaries
The constituency was defined as comprising the following wards as they existed on 1 December 2020:
- The London Borough of Croydon wards of Crystal Palace and Upper Norwood, Norbury and Pollards Hill, Norbury Park, and Thornton Heath, transferred from the abolished Croydon North constituency.
- The London Borough of Lambeth wards of St Leonard's, Streatham Hill, Streatham South, and Streatham Wells, transferred from the abolished Streatham constituency.[2]
Map of boundaries from 2024
Following a local government boundary review in the Borough of Lambeth which came into effect in May 2022,[3][4] the constituency now comprises the following from the 2024 general election:
- The London Borough of Croydon wards of: Crystal Palace & Upper Norwood, Norbury & Pollards Hill, Norbury Park, Thornton Heath.

It is the first time these areas have shared a constituency since the creation of the Wandsworth and Croydon constituencies in 1885.
