    There is a small development in the next village down from us, I've just noticed the names they've given to a couple of the townhouses in it.

    Broadmoor & Carstairs

    Why would anyone choose these as names & did they know what these places really are? ^-^

    OUr pedecessors had delusions of grandeur and called our house Newnham Lodge. I took the sign down, it was embaressing.

    It's customary to name new houses after the trees you chop down to make way for them. :)
     
  8. someone near me has named their house 'because' .... which i quite like ....

    my parents named their old house 'oakview' because there used to be a load of oak trees in the front garden ... but they got cut down and then i renamed it to 'view'
