Is there really a place called Piddletown?

Scrumpy Geoff

Yes and right next to Puddletown. Tollpuddle martyrs and all that

Reminds me of Little Pedlington and the Pedlingtonians. Has anyone read it? A sort of 1830s version of the League of Gentlemen.

Scrumpy Geoff

I drove past Piddletown and Piddle Hinton this morning so I waved to them for you

All named after the River Piddle. Piddletown became Puddletown after WW2. Piddletrenthide on the otherhand kept the reference to the river!

Scrumpy Geoff

Funny beggars that lot in Dorset. We're going to build a wall to keep them out!

As we used to observe in Wiltshire; "Dorset born and Dorset bred, strong in the arm, weak in the head".
