Can anyone tell me please what counties Deptford, Poplar and Greenwich come under or are they all city of London?

Dear Chris

Hello


If you look on this website, there is a comprehensive list of the districts and boundary changes:

Until 1889, Deptford came under Kent, Poplar was under Middlesex and Greenwich was listed for Kent.

Take gentle care
Best wishes
