I drove through a place called "The Shoe" on Monday, near Chippenham. 😆
Sally's Bottom - Cornwall
@Saccades
Mount St. Bernard is an abbey, about 2 miles from me, right now!
I could go there the long way, via Butt Hole Lane (really!) or go the slightly less long way along a street called The Land of Two Rivers.
Ok, they're not place names, but they are pretty bizarre.
We also have a Slash Lane nearby, if anyone feels the need...
There's some good combinations
Hitchin, Herts
(in?)
Sandy, Beds
😀
And who else knows what the original name was for Threadneedle Street?
(I doubt it'd get past the swear filter)
@ransos
Yes, I think a few of us do now...
There WAS a Grope**** lane in Oxford; Now it's Magpie lane.
Ah, The Shoe, named after the pub that used to be opposite the garage, but is now a private house with a large dry-stone wall around it. Coming back towards Chippenham, on the way to Castle Combe, is a little hamlet called Tiddlywink, I kid you not, and up near Lyneham there's Scotland and New Zealand. Oh, and just down the road from The Shoe, the junction with the A36 is Pennsylvania, which gets it's name from the same source as the American state, William Penn.
grynch, what's so funny about Old Shop?
😆
Nah. I think, truthfully, that this suggestion has been one of the best thus far.
What makes it better is that there's a South *o.
I mean c'mon; after 'stumbling upon' some websites purveying adult toys, there [i]are[/i] items which combine *o [i]and[/i] south ****o for both V & A pleasure!
bigyinn, ransos and adh - good ones.
You go past Loose Bottom when doing the South Downs Way.
Lickfold always makes me s****.
I had a mate who lived in Shitterton.
We went through the aforementioned Muff en route to diving in Donegal. Well, you have to don't you?
Driving from Scotland to Glastonbury Festival in the ninties, we always knew we were close to Glastonbury when we passed the sign to a place called Bawdrip, always raised a laugh.
Kept meaning to stop on the way back up the road to liberate the sign, funnilly enough never remembering to do so.
Excellent. Keep 'em coming.
Dunno if its been done already...
there's a place in Co. Durham called....No Place
Mike-T, as you enjoyed that I'm sure you'd get a chuckle from..

grynch - that's just too good......if a dildo were to run, where else would it hide but, of course, a 'dark cove'.
Brilliance.
I know of a wee place called Laide, on the NW coast of Scotland, on the mainland, very close to Gruinard Island (formerly known as Anthrax Island).
An acquaintance of mine runs a B&B there (in Laide) called The Lovecroft.
His surname is Love, as opposed to there being a tacky connection 'twixt 'love' and 'laid'.
Damn! Is that the time?
Bon soir.
Nempnett Thrubwell... and nearby, a name I consider superior, Hinton Blewitt.
Yes but Nempnett Thrubwell has a "black hole" effect. I once foolishly tried to drive cross from the A38 to A37 and spent 40 minutes "spiralling" toward Nempnett. I escaped and wound up unexpectedly in Harptree - phew!
place in the Vende/e, france, called.....
