I used to live in this village, the sign used to get nicked at least once a year 😉

I got a yellow card last time I posted a village name on a thread like this. Turned it it was made up.

I spent a few hours in a locked room thanks to US customs thinking I was taking the piddle, when they asked me where I was from 😉

pity me and once brewed in North East

Not got photos, but in Bewdley there is a passage called the Gob and in Wollaston there is the famous Bell End.

Touchen-End in Berks always makes me smile.

Or how about something from Suffolk that always makes me chuckle...

Minge Lane in Upton on Severn. Sign is now concreted into the wall.

Cockshot Road is only just down from Hornyold Road in Malvern.

Got to love the Slaughters (Upper & Lower) on the top of the Cotswolds.

Or how about something from Suffolk that always makes me chuckle...

I always stop there for a coffee on my way to the Broads! It's about halfway between London and Great Yarmouth 8)

(Well, i say halfway......)

I drive through Wetwang on my way up to the NY Moors.

Oh and rode past here in Northern Spain

Just above Heptonstall. 🙂

Hornyold Road in Malvern

This the one 😉

aye. About 100yrds from my old house 🙂
Boringly enough, Hornyold is a local family name. Rather than anything more racy.

Penis Town
Upperthong & Netherthong

more bizarre than funny - stromness, orkney

There's a 'Foul End' near me, too. No, not [i]that[/i] near...

I've seen Poo!
Isn't that near Llanes, in Northern Spain?

Thong is just up the road from me 😉

I've seen Poo!

Stop giggling at the back 😆

aye-aye - yep, well noted!

Bell End near Belbroughton/Clent

I'm currently working in Cockermouth.

Tomorrow I will be going for a shop ride with 4 Play Cycles in Cockermouth, looking forward to it.

Beaten to it by Houns, I pass through Bell end most days 😆

Wetwang has to my favourite in East Yorkshire.

There is Blubberhouses in Noth Yorks I think and Keith in Scotland.

Damn - was about to post the Thong one. Just up the road from where I was born.

Crotch Crescent (Oxford)

There's a copse just round the corner from me called 'Hum Hole'.

I'm astonished that the sign has not been modified.

Stamford has a 'Melancholy Way'. Slight hijack but I was amused last week to be reading about a trial presided over by a lady judge called Merry Cocks.

Trumpery Lane - Just outside norwich

and...

Shavington cum gresty - somewhere along the A5 if I recall...

Late lamented

Recently changed after residents got bored with all the inevitable naked posing. New version:

Great and little snoring always make me smile, on the A17 norfolk I think

Place near Reeth called Booze.
Totties is another good one thats not far from Holmfirth.
Shittlehope west of Hamsterley.

Friend of mine used to live on a road called Butts Mount.

I'm just down the road from Bedlam. Keep meaning to take a picture.
