Fake Britain - An atlas of fictional locations in England, Scotland and Wales

[Feek]

I spotted an older version of this posted elsewhere a few days ago and my first thought was "oh, this is rubbish, someone's just made up a few place names" but then I noticed I recognised some names and it quickly became clear that it's not rubbish, it's genius.

It's exactly what it claimed to be - a map of fictional locations, that is any location that's been mentioned or used in books, tv, films, games etc.

Great fun spotting places you know, all the Harry Potter locations are there. Danebury is there, The Castle Aaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh is there, Slade Prison is there, Fitton Airport is there, Borsetshire (and associated towns) is there, you get the idea.

Now I know where Midsomer is, that's somewhere to avoid.

Have a look, this really is fantastic. I make no excuses for the high image

With Beanotown and Dandytown so close together, you'd imagine there's been a few rumbles halfway between over the years.

And Whizztown just down the road as well.

Didn't see Chigley, Camberwick Green or Trumpton.

Look harder.

Clue: South coast, there’s a whole area called TRUMPTONSHIRE
