Default Borough boundaries

The thread about Dartford started me thinking. Which is the stupidest
boundary in London?

I can think of 2 candidates..

LB Richmond is absurd. Putting Twickenham and Richmond in the same borough
makes no sense, when the only transport links between the two halves of the
borough are 2 road bridges, 1 rail bridge, and a few pedestrian links.

The borough boundary down the middle of Edgware High Street is ridiculous. I
particularly like the way you travel westward away from Edgware High Street
and are greeted by signs that read "LB Harrow - Welcome to Edgware". I'm
sure that as you drive southward from Macedonia you see similar signs that
say "Greece - Welcome to Macedonia"
