Re: Devon's funniest street and place names

Great idea Longdogs, and you are absolutely right there are some very interesting street names in Yorkshire, I'll get on it.....

Meanwhile, here's one I saw while on holiday in the Isle of Wight a few years ago....I know it's been interfered with, but it made me laugh.....

There's Playing Place and Queen Camel in Cornwall, Nempnett Thrubwell and Crapnell in Somerset and a lane called There and Back Again Lane.

Wouldn't want to give that as my address, would you?
There is also a river by that same name and in the same place in Dorset. I wouldn't want to try and guess what it is that fills the river though!

Oh of course, silly me, it's water!

Re: Devon's funniest street and place names

How about Slack Bottom? Does that qualify?


It's a small hamlet just above Heptonstall which in turn is above Hebden Bridge.
