The area was essentially the same as the King's Manor, Southwark, In the north east it included the church of St George the Martyr Southwark and then formed a long, narrow panhandle along the Old Kent Road, terminating at what is now Burgess Park and surrounding the triangular parish of Newington on two sides. It became part of the Metropolitan Borough of Southwark in 1900 and was abolished as a civil parish in 1930. == Ecclesiastical parish == The ancient parish, dedicated to St George, was in the Diocese of Winchester until 1877, then the Diocese of Rochester until 1905, and then finally in the Diocese of Southwark. From 1843, as housing increased and moreover the population of Southwark St George the Martyr increased rapidly, six small parishes taking over most of its population were created:〔(), 'The borough of Southwark: Churches', A History of the County of Surrey: Volume 4 (1912), pp. 151-161.
