Discworld streets, that's what I'm talking about

Oooh fantastic.

Wincanton in Somerset has two fabulous street names - Peach Pie Street and Treacle Mine Road.

You guessed it. They were inspired by street names in Ankh-Morpork.

Sir Terry Pratchett himself was there for the grand event.

Excerpt from The Guardian (via Link):

Pratchett visited the town today to unveil the road names at a new housing estate, and was greeted by hundreds of fans – many dressed in costume.
