Thank-you. Strange enough I was thinking of using Goodmayes as an excellent place to lose the kids in !!
Next clue: Sounding very much as if a burned out old bishop was into equestrianism.

Correct. Poor old Hugh Latimer, Bishop of Worcester, was sizzled at the stake by Queen Mary I.
Over to you.

Thank you, that was a good clue (I'm probably only saying that because I was able to solve it).
Perhaps this next clue also refers to a bishop:
He's in church for matins.

I hope I haven't misled anyone. The bit about a bishop is not part of the clue, it would have been in bold if it was.

It's not Mornington Crescent although "Morning" is relevant.

Honiton is the correct answer. Revolve (like a palindrome) the letters not + in +oh (Ohio).

New clue:- Oven roll spoiled rotten (twice)

Maybe time for a hint? What is the significance of (twice)?

London Liverpool Street?
Caboose Class

London Liverpool Street is correct. The answer is a straightforward anagram of Oven roll spoiled rotten. The significance of (twice) is that the word rotten acts as both anagram indicator and also forms part of the answer!
