Road trips rarely sound weirder than this. Welcome to WatchMojo UK and today we'll be counting down our picks for the top 10 obscure and unusual British place names.
For this list, we're scaling the UK, stopping off at the strangest sounding towns, villages and hamlets. We're looking for larger settlements only, so no silly-sounding streets or individual locations, like Great Cockup (a fantastically named fell in the Lake District) or Sandy Balls (a scratchy sounding woodland in Hampshire). And it's one entry per county, only.
