OH, is that the more serious village?
BCH traffic police were busy there earlier.

I think Mavis Enderby in Lincolnshire is the most wonderful name for a village. I always caused us to giggle.

I live near Canford Bottom and we have the River Piddle nearby plus a whole lot of Piddle villages and a Piddle brewery with, of course, a wide selection of Piddle ales (plus some other ales with equally rude names
).

And Bo Peep Lane in East Sussex. Whenever we drive past I always wonder who Bo was, and what he was peeping at !

I love the village called Wetwang...they have an excellent Scarecrow festival each year.
Somewhere in East Yorkshire...out Howden way, I think...is Land of Nod.
Somewhere else, though I can't remember where, is Lost.
On one of the Orkney isles, there is a hamlet called ....oh no, I daren't put that on here!
(but it begins with T and ends with TT with WA in the middle.)
