Been asked this question before and gave this answer, and was duly told it was wrong for some reason.

It was a question in a pub quiz sometime last year. we came up with Barking (after lots of guesses) but it wasn't the right answer. I can't remember what their answer was, but we argued that Barking was still 'right' and we got the point.

Their answer was some long drawn-out name, but I can't remember what it was.
