Here's a 6-inch/mile OS map (1913-1914, published 1920) from the
National Library of Scotland site

Southwark Park station was due south of The Oval cricket ground and
slightly east of South Bermondsey which was on the other line.

Southwark Park is nowhere near the Oval and somewhat north-east of it.

Maybe the railway that named it should have followed GW practice and
named it something along the lines of "Southwark Park Road"?
