Sorry - that sounds more like a station-specific link, which is not valid in this thread (it was repeated non-station links which resulted in the creation of this thread in the first place)...

To match both Tebay and Newton Abbot, Mablethorpe also has precisely one "A" in its name.

Mablethorpe also has precisely one "A" in its name.

Felixstowe was also another settlement that was affected by the effects of the 1953 East Coast floods.

Dover is another UK port

Seven Sisters has even whiter cliffs than Dover - in fact sometimes photos from Seven Sisters have been marked as being Dover.

I have my doubts as to the validity of Seven Sisters, as described, as being a settlement as such that falls within the recognised rules of this particular quiz, but it is more a description of the coastline geological structure of that area.

Hastings was another of the Confederation of Cinque Ports.

Whilst not densely inhabited, several farmhouses, cafes (and less permanent campsites) are described as being in Seven Sisters.

I am not normally as pedantic as this (many will disagree) but I did in fact research matters before making my posting. Had the Seven Sisters part of North London been an answer, that would have been acceptable as that is a recognised settlement name. I have since followed up on your explanation by telephoning the local authority that covers the area of the white cliffs in your original answer and their view is that Seven Sisters is not officially a recognised settlement name, but admitted that it is a generic localised name that is used for tourism by those who trade in that area.

Gosh, you're very thorough! Fair enough.

Apologies for this. I was responding with what was more of a shed-specific link (there is no longer a station at Tebay ) as a response to the posts above.

Brighton is another area where both Stagecoach and a Go-ahead subsidiary run buses (and have a certain degree of interavailability of tickets).

Sunningdale also has very fine golf course designed by Henry Shapland Colt.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Boxley in Kent also has a very fine example of an 18th century country house (Stonehouse).....Sunningdale has a good example of the same called Coworth House

 

[Ivo]

Boxley is not to be confused with Bexley. (Whoever goes next, try something more inventive than the same clue with "-heath" on the end )
