Listening to the bloke I'm confused that the article refers to him as a Yorkshireman mind!

Found some on the ride out yesterday. The first one is in the original list although I couldn't find a road sign with 'Lickey End' on it so hope this is OK?

The following are ones I've found. Thanks to In me shed for a heads up on 'Barf'! This one's round the corner from me but I never considered it.
Barf Close, Mickleover, Derby

Cummings Street, Peartree, Derby

Cockshut Lane, Melbourne, Derbys

Knob Fields, Castle Gresley, South Derbyshire.


While out Bromsgrove way we went to look for Bell End but could find no sign for it or of it.

Went out yesterday to see if I could add to the collection. Cockintake on the list is close to one of our regular roads so off we went.
Got a post code (ST102LR) off google maps for Cockintake Farm but on arrival, although a farm at that post code it was called something different! Rode up and down for a mile or so each way but no signs for Cockintake!!  :icon_no:
Oh well. Set off to the Yonderman cafe for an all day breakfast and noticed this on the satnav (no road sign).


At Bottomhouse on the A523 Ashbourne to Leek road. Thought about one for Bottomhouse but road very busy to pull over by roadsign.

After breakfast (now about 13.00) we had a ride round some of the lanes behind the Yonderman and I spotted these on the satnav...........
no road signs again but they were on the same stretch of road between Wardlow & Stoney Middleton, Derbyshire Dales. (S324TH)





I've already got one Moisty Lane down to me, Marchington, Staffordshire. Must be a bit damp round here!!  :grin:

I could not resist taking a photo of this one on my way to Fat Rat's welsh  rally. On the A 438.
