- Street signs on Minge Lane in Upton upon Severn have been reinforced with concrete to prevent tourist theft after the road featured in a survey of the UK 's most cheekily named locations.
- Upton upon Severn mayor Jeremy Owenson said residents are proud of Minge Lane's historic Anglo-Saxon name and even host an annual summer festival in its honour.
- The survey highlighted several other humorous locations, including Norfolk 's Sluts Hole Lane, Shitterton in Dorset , Sandy Balls in the New Forest , and Butthole Lane in Leicestershire.
- More than half of Britons believe the UK has the world's funniest road names, though 65 per cent of drivers admit cheeky names are a distraction, with one in three reporting near-accidents.
- To combat driver distraction, Asda Car Insurance temporarily placed green velvet "modesty" curtains over some of the nation's most humorous street signs.
