Kent

Would be interesting to find out how long the association with Kent goes back. Morwen - Talk 15:57, 10 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps at least to the start of the Woolwich Ferry (14th Century) ? MRSC 16:37, 10 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

""Conversely, the area of the eastern part that lies north of the docks – an area of employment land, infrastructure facilities and post-industrial dereliction, with very few residents – is more usually seen as being part of Beckton, an area that has never had any formal definition" - what is "employment land"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.109.101.165 (talk) 18:50, 22 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Lead paragraph

edit

I've reverted the article back to the last stable version from March this year so that the current issues with the lead paragraph can be discussed - I don't think anything vital got reverted at the same time. Here strikes me as a half-decent place to have that discussion, unless someone tells me it's occurring elsewhere.

I have significant concerns about the OLINKs added in recently - we have no need to link either London or England per WP:OLINK. I also feel the pipe of East London applied just to east is a little misleading - not the worst I've seen. And then there's the whole "it used to be/no it is/no it used to be/is/used" bunfight. So, lats stable version and discuss from there... Blue Square Thing (talk) 17:24, 29 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
