Shitterton? Let’s hope it’s not a dump – man visits places with hilarious names
GLOBE-trotting Nicholas Hale has spent 26 years posing in places with naughty names.
He has tracked down locations ranging from Yorkeys Knob, in Cairns, Australia, to Shitterton in Dorset.
The cruise ship singer and comedian said: “It’s a pathetic obsession really but I think everyone can relate a bit.
"When most people see a rude place name, they have a little, childish chuckle.”
The 50-year-old was inspired as a child when he was driven through Wetwang, a village near his home in Scarborough, North Yorks.
