London is actually at sea level, or to be completely accurate, most of it is.

" . . . cities located at sea level, from London to Los Angeles."
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2004/04/0408_040408_greenlandicemelt.html

Hampstead and Highgate are the highest areas in London:

Highgate "is perched on the highest hill in London with the summit 443
feet above sea level, and it affords breathtaking views of the
sprawling city below.
As with Hampstead, its height and separation from London endowed it
with a great reputation as a healthy spot to live with its 'sweet
salutary air'."

Please do ask if you would like me to clarify anything about this answer.
