This clue might be a double definition.

'london's' is the first definition.

'beach' is the second definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for strand that I've seen before include "Leave helpless - London street" , "Drive (ship) aground" , "Ply" , "Drive aground on shore" , "Thread; leave in lurch" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
