East Dulwich Village!

[????]

"Village" inflation by idiot estate agents and developers means that it's hard to find any previous inner-london suburb sh!thole that isn't a "village"

As far as the post office is concerned, if you have a EC/WC/E/W/N/NW/SE/SW postcode, you live in 'London'. You can subdivide that down to whatever you please.

I used to have a flatmate who lived in Saffron Walden, which is in Essex, but has a Cambridge postcode. Because they weren't actually in Cambridgeshire (much to their annoyance), but Essex caused confusion (given the postcode), they used to put their county down as 'Near Cambridge'.

SE22 - East Dulwich. SE15 - Peckham and Nunhead. That's the commonly accepted, modern border

But please... feel free to enthrall us with historical parish boundries...

Forget the history. This thread is about the present (if you read the OP).

What is the source of your 2016 "technically"?

"Technically" was clearly a poor choice of words, knowing that you'd be waiting to swoop in. I have already stated my rationale. Not interested in discussing further.

I have now noticed the slippage from "technically" to "commonly accepted".
