Battersea South (UK Parliament constituency)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Battersea North was a parliamentary constituency in the then Metropolitan Borough of Battersea in South London. It returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
It was created for the 1918 general election, when the former Battersea constituency was divided in two. It was abolished for the 1983 general election, when most of its territory was reunited with Battersea North to form the new Battersea constituency.
