AFAIR no ceremonial county in what is now
modern Greater London spanned the Thames.

Kent, specifically two parts of Woolwich (i.e. North Woolwich and
another nearby bit whose name I can't recall ATM).


You're thinking of North Greenwich, in the Isle of Dogs. These enclaves
don't really count. They were consequences of the river's course changing as
the docks developed.
