South Wimbledon is a place in the London Borough of Merton in south west London.

It is ten minutes walk from Wimbledon centre, and is most obviously recognised by the busy crossroads at which South Wimbledon tube station is situated on one corner.

This crossroad leads from Wimbledon, to the north, across to Morden, south. East leads to Colliers Wood, whilst west leads towards Wimbledon Chase and Merton Park. The tube station is the last stop south on the Northern Line before it terminates at Morden. The route north follows the road to Colliers Wood tube station.

Admiral Nelson once had property in this part of London, and therefore a number of roads and pubs in the region (immediately to the east, and much further to the west, in Wimbledon Chase) are named after historically relevant battles and ships. The Nelson's Arms pub is on the road to Colliers Wood.
