Can we narrow it down to 'somewhere in the South-East' for a start?

You can. I'll add that it's within Travelcard Zones 1-6.

No.  It is somewhere that shares part of its name with a London football team, but is located nowhere near to that football team's ground. However, (according to the TfL» (Transport for London - about) route planner) you can reach that ground from here on one train.
