We've got Whiteladies Rd and it continues to Blackboy Hill ~ the Blackboy pub located on the hill changed its name years ago.

The “Formerly Black Boy Lane” inscription at the bottom of the new name makes the whole thing seem redundant.

yes it does, but they have to do that until maps etc get updated, it's standard practice. It needs to be viewed in the long term rather than short term. So in 10 years or whatever it will only be known by the new name

Good use of Ł189,000?]



Emily Carver Stated

The issue isn't that that particular sign cost 189k, it's that it costs that amount of money to do that type of road work. Thats where the complaint should be (if it is true) not against the changing of the sign itself. It's pretty obviously an over exaggeration by someone who doesn't give a toss about who is offended

He is a Respected Poet from the Past.

I had not heard of him,
But they have kept the old name in small text
