I have just bought a very funny book called "Rude Britain" and it lists the
100 places (and roads or areas) in England with the rudest names, and
their history.
There is "Three Cocks", "Sandy Balls", "Butt Hole Road", "Back
Passage", "Beaver Close", "Willey", "Lickey End", "Cocks" and "Minge
Lane".
Very funny and would make a great Christmas Present.
Can you image giving out your address:
I live at Butt Hole Road, near Minge Lane, Sandy Balls, Cocks

There is a "Bell End" in the book, a road in Rowley Regis in the West
Midlands. It is opposite Mincing Lane.
It is number 3 in their top 100.
They do say there is a small hamlet about 10 miles away with the same
name.

It says it is a village in Powys. The welsh spelling is shown as Aberllynfi, the English as Three Cocks.
It is number 60 in their top 100.

There's a place near Newmarket called "Six Mile Bottom" which is very Brit Porn sounding.
