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.

If you can get the map to appear, there seems to have been another "The
Oval" cricket ground in Bermondsey.

Re the Bermondsey Oval, it is still, more or less, in existence, had an
artificial wicket installed around 2007 for local schools to use. It is
west of the Southwark Park Sports Complex:

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