Britain's daftest place name (Round 3)

Rather embarrassingly, we still have three place names tied in first place, even after extending the deadline by a day.

So, basically, the next vote or two will decide the matter, then we can move on to the penultimate round.

Update: thanks, whoever cast the casting vote; this week's winner is Berrick Salome, submitted by Jock Coats.

Round 4 is now underway!

Wait, wait - the first two are the same place, surely? And unfortunately not qualified as a silly name because that is exactly where St Edmund was buried. (Well, where his body was moved to in order to set the abbey up round it.)

Bradfield Combust, now that's a silly name.

WOAR, yes, sort of, that's part of the fun.

Bradfield Combust will go in the fifth round (after which is The Grand Final).
