I've a picture on my facebook this morning of strange road names and I have googled (how bored am I lol) where they are:
Bitchfield, a small village in the South Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England
Twatt a settlement in the Shetland Islands of Scotland
Butt Hole Road is the former name of a street in the town of Conisbrough, Doncaster, England, within the county of South Yorkshire, renamed Archers way after a petition by residents
Bladder Lane, in Plymouth, believed to have been named for the bladderwort plant which grew in an adjacent meadow, was changed to Boniface Lane at the request of a St Boniface's Catholic College, on the road, which was unhappy with it.
Bent Street, in Blackburn, was renamed following lobbying from a new sheltered accommodation complex on the road. It has now been given the rather more bucolic-sounding Greenhurst Place.
Crotch Crescent, Marston Oxford
Fanny Street, Cathays, Cardiff and Saltaire, Shipley, West Yorkshire
Titup Hall Drive, Headington, Oxford
Juggs Close, Lewes, East Sussex
Busty View, Newfield, Chester Le Street
Bush Bank, Kiama, NSW
Hardon Road, cul de sac, Wolverhampton
Happy Bottom, Corfe Mullen, Wimborne
The Knob, Falmouth, Cornwall and Capetown
Cocks (which is an actual village)
In Southport, there is Cockle Dicks Lane and Knob Hall Lane
