What is it with these small new housing developments, that like to call themselves such nonsensical twee names as 'Badger's Grove', 'Foxglove Mews' or 'Meadow Rise' etc. etc. - you know the ones I mean - you can find them all over... Why are there no 'Blast Furnace Streets', 'Corporation Car Park Avenues' or 'Engineering Factory Roads'...?!

  The first house I bought was on a development with a Robin Hood theme. My house was in Sherwood Close. Wimpey wanted suggestions for new roads on the site. "Quiver Crescent?" said I. It wasn't used. And BTW this was in Shropshire!

  Old established road near here called 'Lovers Lane'. New development off it of six or so houses called 'Gretna Close' Ho ho :-)
