Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Southwark was a parliamentary constituency centred on the Southwark district of South London. It returned two Members of Parliament to the House of Commons of the English Parliament from 1295 to 1707, to the Parliament of Great Britain from 1707 to 1800, and to the Parliament of the United Kingdom until the constituency's abolition for the 1885 general election. The constituency was re-established as a single-member seat for the 1950 general election, and abolished for the February 1974 general election.
