Shitterton (near Bere Regis, Dorset).

The name plate of the village was stolen so many times that it’s now (probably concreted in) on a huge rock!

I think they did the same with Twatt.

Wetwang, on the other hand, endures.

The name itself isn’t rude: Three Mile Bottom 🤷🏻‍♀️ but ever since I was a kid, my dad has called it “Massive Arsehole” 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

Wetwang

My kids were highly amused when we drove past Wetwang on holiday once and I opened the thread knowing it would be here 😂

I used to live here, it's actually Wideopen but out of the area friends found it hilarious when I gave them my address!

My friend from uni lived there. Missed the spelling.

I wonder what he'd make of Six Mile Bottom

Fingringhoe. My PILs live nearby to this place and I can’t believe nobody else acknowledges it

There is a town called Wank in Germany.

How we laughed when we realised that the inhabitants are all technically wankers.

The town has embraced it too, you can buy merch that says I ❤️ Wank
