List of civil parishes in Greater London

This is a list of civil parishes in the ceremonial county of Greater London. There is currently just one civil parish in Greater London, since all were abolished in 1965. Before this date the civil parish had only a nominal role as all parish councils in the area had been abolished by 1936. The right to create civil parishes in London boroughs was reintroduced by the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007. The City of London is a ceremonial county in its own right and is listed separately.

List of current parishes Queen's Park parish in the City of Westminster was created on 1 April 2014. The local council is Queen's Park Community Council. The rest of Greater London is unparished.

List of parishes abolished in 1965 This is a list of civil parishes in Greater London that were abolished on 1 April 1965 by the London Government Act 1963. Many were ancient parishes or chapelries that had survived through various waves of reform. Others were created as a result of amalgamations over the years. In some places the parishes were identical to local government districts. By 1965 they were all urban parishes and had only nominal existence. They ceased to be routinely used for census reporting after 1951. The largest parish by area was Orpington (20,842 acres), which corresponded to Orpington Urban District. The smallest was New Brentford (213 acres). The largest parish by population was Wandsworth (330,493), which corresponded to the Metropolitan Borough of Wandsworth, and the smallest was Farleigh (80) that was transferred out of London in 1969 and is now part of the parish of Chelsham and Farleigh.
