It will be seen that three wards, namely Forest Hill, Sydenham
East and Manor Lee, had rates more than 50 percent over the average,
while Sydenham West had a rate less than half that of these badly
affected wards, and was in fact the only ward in the West division to
have a rate below the average. Sydenham West is, in its entirety, over
the 150 feet contour while most of it is over the 200 feet contour.
The ward results are also shown in the map.
