WHAT THE FUCK???!!!!

I haven't checked but I think Fanny Hands Lane in Lincolnshire might have been renamed. Could never help laughing as we passed it enroute to Skegness but if locals saw you laughing it brought a frown to some of their faces. I believe they did petition their local authorities to rename it and it was in the news years ago.

If you mean Louth/wragby area it still has the same name.
Funny enough I always feel the need to wave at any locals on the way through ( both hands lol)
 
How's he steering?

Oh he's from Cock-A-Dibby.

Feels like this belongs here.

Anyone entering Barnet from the M25 has skirted the entrance to Trotters Bottom...
 
Also FWIW, there are several roads in Welwyn Garden City which are named [something] Ley (pronounced "Lay") which apparently draw their origins from the traditional Old English word leah (corrupted over centuries into "ley" or "lea"), which means a woodland clearing or meadow.

Some are fairly innocuous like Langstone Ley or South Ley, but you have to wonder if the town planners were having a bit of a laugh when they named:
Little Ley
Long Ley
Great Ley
Bushey Ley
 
I go past the other end going to Borehamwood
Galley Lane doesn't have the same ring to it though, sadly.

I'm a Barnet boy originally so used to drive down there all the time.
