Map restricted to only pubs north of the river - just filter out pubs within Southwark:

The location given for Tobacco Dock is INCORRECT.  The dock is located 0.060296 EAST longitude, NOT WEST.

 

Many people here probably didn't look carefully at their solution, as the incorrect Tobacco Dock location places it squarely on the flight line at London City Airport ><

 

Definitely not a dock ...Definitely not a dock ...

The pub color differs depending which side of the river it is on  😎

I couldn't figure out if there's a way to only show the outline of a polygon on the report map. So I split the trade area into points and then made a polyline from it. 
The pubs theme is set to borough_name so that they will have different colors based on which side of the river they're on.
