There's a signpost on the Bridlington road to the Land of Nod! I believe it may be a sleepy little hamlet (sorry). There is a shire horse breeding centre near there, I think.

I heard Grape Lane in York was originally "Grope" lane. Possibly has the same pedigree as the street in London. There was a Footless Lane and a Lop Lane (the one becoming the other along the length of the road) on the mediaeval plan of the city. The Footless Lane led down to the river from the city side to where the Lendal Bridge now is.
