Lesser Spotted Britain

Photographer Dominic Greyer has spent the last 20 years roaming the British landscape in search of the country's most unusual place names. He has an eye for quirky, rude, and downright ridiculous name signs, and has photographed them all. But this is not merely a book of silly place names—Dominic's exquisite, atmospheric photography, featuring the landscapes in which the signs sit, makes the images really special, and this book into a beautiful gift package. Placenames include the famous Twice Brewed (Northumberland), Fryup (North Yorkshire), Long Length (Kent), and Camptown (Borders). There will be a few rude street names too (Lady Gardens, Great Gays, Bell End, and Giant's Ring, for example). This book makes the perfect gift for anyone who loves the quirky side of the country.

Dominic Greyer is a photographer, writer, and the owner of the Lesser Spotted Images gift business, which sells prints, calendars, mugs, and other household items featuring his photography of unusual place name signs. He is the author ofFar From Dull.
