There's a passage in yourk called 'Whip-ma-Whop-ma Gate'. I have a photo of an ex girlfriend pointing at it and smiling.

Godso close.
(Nigel, are you still there?)
A place down the road from me is a village called Palestine. Not far from there is Baghdad Road and Saddam Close. The RAC nearly choked when I tried to give them details of a breakdown!
A few miles away....
Pratts Bottom, Badgers Mount,
*** Lane in Pontefract.
I wrote S L U T Lane and it does exist.
There is one in Sheffield,and its near a police station called Letsby Avenue.
not as good as your examples, but a new-ish housing estate is called Ashview.

(too blooming close to the crematorium)
There's a very narrow pedestrian access in Whitstable called
Squeeze Gut Alley
"There's a passage in yourk called 'Whip-ma-Whop-ma Gate'. I have a photo of an ex girlfriend pointing at it and smiling. "

I have a photo of an ex-girlfriend pointing and smiling at a roadsign in SW France pointing to the town of Condom.

The wikipedia page for Palestine, Hants is worth a read, as a matter of fact. Not sure if the person who wrote it had a subtle sense of humour:
for example:
"Public facilities include: a postbox."
It sounds a bit quieter than its more famous namesake, certainly ...

I was going to say Whip-Ma-Whop-Ma Gate too.
I noticed that the sign is very well bolted to the wall there.
I presumed that if it wasn't, they'd have to keep replacing it as they'd regularly end up on the bedroom walls of students.
If we're allowing foreign ones there's a "Rue Barbe" in Neufchatel-en-Bray in France.
How about Sanitary place -now long gone - in Newcastle?
Bog Houses, near Cramlington in Northumberland.
