Dulwich (/ˈdʌlᵻtʃ/ DULL-itch) is an area of south London, England. The settlement is mostly in the London Borough of Southwark, with parts in the London Borough of Lambeth and consists of Dulwich Village, East Dulwich, West Dulwich and the Southwark half of Herne Hill (which is often referred to as the North Dulwich triangle). Dulwich lies in a valley between the neighbouring districts of Camberwell, Crystal Palace, Denmark Hill, Forest Hill, Peckham, Sydenham Hill and Tulse Hill and was in Surrey until 1889, when the County of London was created.

Dulwich was formerly part of the ancient parish of Camberwell, which later became the Metropolitan Borough of Camberwell, and included Camberwell, Peckham, Nunhead, and other London districts.
