The Norwood Ridge is a 10-square-mile rectangular upland which occupies the geographical centre of south London, centred 5 miles south of London Bridge. Beneath its topsoil it is a ridge of London Clay that is capped on all sides with remaining natural gravel deposits mixed with some sandy soil, which in the South Thames basin is a material known as the Claygate Beds.
The area is rectangular, measuring 2 miles broad. Its longest side is 5 miles if measured from central Brockley around which are three related knolls including Rye Hill, Nunhead or 0.7 miles less if the start-point of the ridge is taken as One Tree Hill, Honor Oak. The upland is visible on terrain maps as three main parts of different elevation.
