South Hampstead is part of the London Borough of Camden in inner northwest London. It is commonly defined as the area between: West End Lane in the west, the Chiltern Main Line (south), Broadhurst Gardens north and north-west followed by a non-road line demarcating the south slopes of Hampstead village, west of Belsize Park and north and west of the usually narrowly defined Swiss Cottage neighbourhood. It takes in some of Fitzjohns Avenue leading up to "the village", that is of Hampstead, but the exact amount is an arbitrary measure.{{refn|group=n|The blurred boundary is caused by the northern, most well-known part of Finchley Road which has two stations named Finchley Road often being considered its own neighbourhood or sometimes "district" and complex road patterns leading up the hill to Hampstead in the north-east; South Hampstead Junior School is almost next to the Finchley Road stations on Netherall Gardens and South Hampstead High School is on a minor intersection of Fitzjohns Avenue creating the above definition}}
