River ports along the Thames...Surrey CC's HQ is the Oval, just half a mile from Vauxhall Bridge :-)

Just one small problem; sell their houses to who, Ben? Fcking Aquaman?

Surrey's border with the Thames stretched as far as the Isle of Dogs before Greater London was created, hence the docks, when built, would have been in Surrey...

Yes but they haven’t been part of Surrey for over a century, so I think the posters comment that they weren’t aware Surrey had a port (which I assume was in jest as it doesn’t) was rather fair!

correcting you is never a good day - an endless task

the article stated "were resident around the sea ports."

note the word 'around'

Surrey Cricket Clubs catchment area includes such residencies - it's HQ at the Oval is in an area that has long had a high Caribean population, that is the point being made, had you bothered to read the article

rather than jump in feet first as usual and make an arz of yourself.....

But Surrey Docks are not in Surrey, so the poster was right to make a joke about Surrey not having a port

You should probably go back to shouting at GeoffSentence like you were earlier, completely oblivious to his post being entirely a p*sstake

For people like myself and Facters, a century is but a moment in time! :-)

err, the article never claimed Surrey had a port - that is just you making up stuff, yet again, what it did say however was

"black people in Britain were resident around the sea ports"

and what were known as Surrey Docks have long been filled in, though they were known as Surrey Docks, because.......guess what ?

No, it was a poster in this thread that made the comment about Surrey not having a port

The same post you replied to with ‘Surrey Docks, might be a clue’

You should probably consider another hobby as internetting clearly isn’t for you. Shouting angrily in an empty room perhaps

I'd been promising myself the reward of returning to read this forum & munching my way through a bag of flapjacks if I got through the 5 hours' non-stop essential housework that I just did - didn't realise my throw-away joke would lead to a row & the thread becoming quite so entertaining ;)

Think your info comes closest in terms of detailed & accurate answer, so cheers 👍
