Default Furthest point from a bus stop

Does anyone know where is the point in Greater London which is furthest
from:


a) a bus stop with a scheduled service (even only only weekly)
b) any form of scheduled public transport?

I assume someone must have calculated this[1] - but a quick Google

didn't find anything.

[1] And Diamond Geezer photographed it, Ian Visits written about a

Victorian proposal for an atmospheric railway there, and London
Reconnections written a slightly tl;dr analysis of why the Underground
doesn't go there.

Diamond Geezer has done something along those lines, perhaps distance from a
station ?

But there are some difficulties of definition.

The middle of Richmond Park would be an obvious entry, but there is a park
bus service, every Wednesday, so perhaps Bushy Park or Hyde park.


I would guess somewhere on the outskirts, for example parts of Bromley.
