» It rained so much yesterday I stayed in all day and compiled this table.
» It took ages longer than I anticipated.
» Even so, it won't be 100% correct.
• North's relatively straight-forward. The chief area to search is between the M25 and Enfield, particularly around Crews Hill, but also keeping an eye on the Lea Valley corridor south of Waltham Cross.
• East's the easiest. The only town out east is Upminster and the only village beyond that is North Ockendon, so that's where almost everything is.
• South has a spilt personality. The far south of London is open country near Old Coulsdon, but nobody lives there so often the southern end of Biggin Hill wins instead.
• West's the toughest. London's westernmost patch lies between Heathrow and the M25 where nobody lives, so instead you have to follow the River Colne checking West Drayton, Cowley, Uxbridge and Harefield (especially the valley slopes below Harefield).
