I find the TfL planner fiddly to use, and because I don't know the
exact destination, what should I put in (it seems to be extremely
pedantic about narrowing down locations to the nearest 50ft).

Just tried the TfL fares-finder, and typed in "Charing Cross". It
asked me which of these I meant:

New Cross ELL Rail Station London OvergroundTramNational Rail
New Cross Gate Rail Station BusLondon OvergroundNational Rail
New Cross Rail Station London OvergroundBusNational Rail
Brent Cross Underground Station BusTube
Hatton Cross Underground Station TubeBus
King's Cross St. Pancras Underground Station BusTube
London Charing Cross Rail Station BusNational Rail
Charing Cross Underground Station Tube
London King's Cross Rail Station National Rail
New Cross Gate ELL Rail Station National Rail
Waltham Cross Rail Station

It gives a similarly dumb list for "King's Cross". Infuriating, isn't it?
