Posted on 10th July, 2015

Dotted right across the world you will find some rather unusual street names. Whether the names have been lost in translation or are a mere coincidence they provide joy to any keen eyed passers-by. Who will of course stop for the obligatory photo in front of the sign to show to all their friends who refuse to believe that they genuinely found a ‘Chitty Street’ or’Donkeys End’. Here are some of our top picks for the funniest and most bizarre street names you will ever find.

1. Fanny Hands Lane

Ludford’s Fanny Hands Lane was recently listed as the third rudest street name in the UK, but residents have proclaimed they are ‘proud’ to live on such an unusual street.
