How about <a href="http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=50.33468144450772~-4.434390335845819&lvl=14&sty=s&eo=0" rel="nofollow">St George's or Looe Island</a>, which is just off Looe in Cornwall (and still in Britain, I'd claim). Follow the link to see it on the OS map.<br /><br />There's also <a href="http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=55.63310509807647~-1.6606494784355164&lvl=15&sty=s&eo=0" rel="nofollow">Oxcar or South Goldstone</a>, which is also an island, this one a tiny speck of rock amongst the Farne Islands, Northumberland. <br /><br />Not in Britain, of course, but there's also <a href="http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=33.13599608838557~-107.23169893026352&lvl=13&eo=0&where1=Truth%20Or%20Consequences%2C%20NM" rel="nofollow">Truth Or Consequences</a> in New Mexico. There's also Double or Nothing Road, Indiana, Hit or Miss Lane, Pennsylvania, and quite a few other similar road names.Nigelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14228972852570724347noreply@blogger.com
