After sifting through over fifty submissions from dozens of commenters and whittling these down to six gruelling preliminary rounds, I am pleased to announce - two hundred votes later - that Britain's Daftest Double-Barrelled Place Name is ... *drumroll* ... Lickey End, submitted by Rachel Miller.
It would be nice if she dropped in to collect her justly deserved award.
NB, if you know the first thing about Lickey End, the least documented place in Britain, you might like to help the chaps at AboutBritain.com complete an otherwise completely blank page. I was the reader who cross posted this article, in case you're wondering. Will it ever appear on their site?

A worthy winner. Bugger her.
Eeep! A reward? Be still my beating heart!
(Is it by any chance an all-expenses-paid trip to Lickey End? And if so, is it one-way only or return?)

The award is only bragging points, but thanks for dropping in to collect them.
We can't send you to Lickey End because nobody's sure where it is or what's there when you arrive.
