That is indeed the case. Some county Borough remained united with
their "parent" county for police purposes (other did not) but in
the case of East and West Ham this was academic as they were all
covered by the Met.

County Boroughs in general remained parts of their geographic counties.
They were just separate for administrative purposes, like parts of some
counties, e.g. East and West Suffolk, Cambs and the Isle of Ely, etc.

I think that the only other County Borough within present day
London was Croydon. Anyone know better?

Yes, they were the only three.
