Upper Norwood straddles several boundaries: the two most significant local authorities in the area are Lambeth and Croydon (the library is in Lambeth, the photographer is standing in Croydon), although Southwark, Bromley and Lewisham also have a presence. As a result, the Library is jointly funded by the London Boroughs of Lambeth and Croydon, and their predecessors' arms can be seen on the gable end (see Image). For the view through the archway creeping into the left of the shot, see Image
