It's a land, but it doesn't start with DOR.

I will also say that the words 'via the bank' are a mere flourish. If you take the Northern Line on the tube, the London suburb you're after is its southern extremity, and when a tube is going all the way there, on the Bank branch, the driver says ' This train is for _________ via the Bank.'

I think it's also the London suburb where Laurie Lee's dad died 'cranking his car,' as he says in 'Cider with Rosie.'

P.S. You also need a synonym for 'broad.'

P.P.S. Every single answer has a connection to a different colour, even if some of the colours are similar, such as 'purple' and 'mauve.'
