Google Maps seems to think that the easternmost point of the Borough is the
intersection of Brampton Road and Longleigh Lane. This is at
51.477106,0.123897. Streetmap (using the OS maps) agrees and gives me
coordinates of:

OS X (Eastings) 547590
OS Y (Northings) 177498
Nearest Post Code DA7 5SE
Lat (WGS84) N51:28:38 (51.477194)
Long (WGS84) E0:07:26 (0.123860)
