Southwark is a district of Central London situated on the south bank of the River Thames, forming the north‑western part of the wider modern London Borough of Southwark. The district, which is the oldest part of South London, developed due to its position at the southern end of the early versions of London Bridge, for centuries the only dry crossing on the river. Around 43 AD, engineers of the Roman Empire found the geographic features of the south bank here suitable for the placement and construction of the first bridge. The local authority is the Southwark London Borough Council, also known as Southwark Council, which administers the area within Greater London, England.
