Some unusual names here and 'Dismal Nitch' made me smile. Does it live up to its name? I wonder? Here are a few English towns to add to your unusual list:
Cockermouth, Crudwell, Greensplat, Medford Sock, Pratt's Bottom, Upperthong, Blubberhouses, Barton in the Beans, Mumbles, Crapstone, Catbrain, Sandy Balls, Cockfosters and Rotten End. Ha ha ha, the English know just how to tell it as it is, love Dolly x
