Location
Loughborough Junction can be found within the postal codes of SE5 and SW9, which shows its southern central position. It forms a border between Herne Hill, Brixton and Camberwell. The main road passing through it is Coldharbour Lane, which runs from Camberwell all the way to central Brixton. The name Loughborough Junction derives from the fact that the area once housed Loughborough House, the residence of Henry Hastings, 1st Baron Loughborough, which was previously the Manor House of Lambeth Wick; there is no other significant connection with the Midlands town of Loughborough or with the railways that serve it.
