Default Strange place names.
There's a pub in Kent called The Cat and Custard Pot.

Any more you have heard of?

There's a pub a few miles from me called that as well lol, and the owners actually do have a cat which is always lounging around on the pub furniture

There's a village near me called Tiddleywink which always makes me smile when I drive through it
