This doesn't answer your question, but the district and town centre of Balham is now in the borough of Wandsworth, not Lambeth, although the area east of Cavendish Road known as the Hyde Farm Estate is generally referred to as being in Balham and has the SW12 postcode.

As I understand it from Wikipedia and elsewhere on the Web, Balham was part of the Metropolitan Borough of Wandsworth before the metropolitan boroughs were replaced with larger London boroughs in 1965.

Is Surrey in London?

Surrey is not in London. It is a county that borders Greater London. Here are a few areas which are still mistakenly referred to as 'Surrey' but are officially part of Greater London: Richmond-upon-Thames, Kingston-upon-Thames, Surbiton, Sutton and Croydon. What confuses many people - is that these towns do not possess traditional London post-codes (such as SW15, with the exception of Kingston Vale in this case) but apart from this anomaly - are otherwise administratively parts of London. North of the Thames, similar anomalies are found: Wembley (an iconic area of London) possesses an HA post-code (Harrow) and not a NW post-code as one may expect. If you look further back through history you will find that Lambeth, Wandsworth and Southwark were considered part of Surrey until 1889 - but were 'swallowed-up' by the inexorable expansion of London through time.
