Yes, Blackhorse Road is correct, being an anagram of hears roadblock

Your turn.

In the chalk hills -- we hear, possibly: coleoptoran monarch; and his ordained -- theologically subtle -- maybe chaplain.

Dorking Deepdene?

Just Deepdene when I used to ramble thereabouts as a lad, and also the home of the notable railway historian and suburbs historian Alan A Jackson.

Correct -- the king of the dor beetles; and his chaplain, ecclesiastical rank Dean: learned in deep theological matters, presumably including insectical ones. Your go.

Not in my geographical "patch": I've travelled on the line through the station, but that's about all.

The vicar might give you a chocolate here?

Boston? The late Rev. Teddy Boston was a railway enthusiast, and a jolly and benign soul -- I'm sure he'd have freely handed out chocolates if in a position to do so :smile:.

Right -- won't get entangled with Cadbury Road, then (Weston, Clevedon & Portishead Ry., closed not all that far off a century ago ... ).
