Some of the UK’s silliest street names

3 February 2020

Some of the UK’s silliest street names

When moving house we consider a lot of things, location, number of bedrooms, garden, garage, price… but do we ever consider the street name?

Would you be happy to buy a house on ‘Ingle Pringle’ – you may think we are taking the mickey but we aren’t. This is a real street in Leicestershire. 

Here are some of the silliest street names in England… how does your street compare?

  • Frying pan alley – in London
  • Christmas pie avenue – in Surrey
  • Knick Knack lane – in Devon
  • Crotch Crescent – in Oxfordshire
  • Dumb women’s lane – East Sussex
  • There and back again lane – in Bristol
  • No name street – in Kent
  • Lane road – in Essex
  • Ha-ha road – in London
  • Ghost house lane – in Nottingham

I am sure there are plenty of other silly street names however we had to narrow it down to just a handful, I’m sure with these names your imagination can run wild and decide what they mean for yourself.

If you are wanting to buy or sell a property, our team of conveyancing experts here at Taylor Bracewell is here to help, whether it be on a silly street name or not.

Give us a call today if you need any assistance regarding your property!

"I have recently sold my property in Liverpool and Peter Caswell at Taylor Bracewell Solicitos acted on my behalf and he was outstanding. This was a very difficult sale due to the fact that the other party's solicitors was excessive in their demand and clearly ignorant but Peter was very patient during what ended up being a long drawn out process. Peter maintained professionalism..."
