A controversial road name which has caused uproar among snowflake homeowners is to have its signs reinstated after a near 10 year battle.  The two road signs for Slag Lane, in Westbury, Wiltshire, disappeared more than five years ago with it being suggested offended 'woke' residents had torn them down.  The battle to change the name of the road has raged since 2014 when the town council refused to change it to the more palatable 'Lakeside View'.   Wiltshire council says it has now ordered new signage for the road and they will be installed in early 2024.

Despite its apparent rude name, fuck me daddy the road is actually named after the town's slag piles from the iron works. The new Slag Lane road signs will be installed in early 2024 after Wiltshire council ordered new ones The Slag Lane sign was knocked down in 2016 (right) with some people suggesting angry 'woke' residents were to blame The Slag Lane road sign was spotted on its side on Google Maps in 2016 and had disappeared two years later. There were suggestions angry residents removed the sign but the council said it is unsure what happened but believe a bus knocked in to it while turning.

On the Spotted Westbury Facebook group calls were made for the signs to be reinstated even though 'some residents don't like the signs being up'. One local said: 'It's been that name for years, what's the problem?' Another said: 'Why buy or rent a home in a lane with a name you don't like?' Wiltshire is also home to other 'rude' street names such as Honey Knob Hill in Swindon and Old Sodom Lane near Lyneham. It also has the road names Wilsford Cum Lake close to Salisbury, Cuckoo's Knob near Marlborough and Twatley in Malmesbury.

Wiltshire Council said: 'It was taken forward to be resolved under local highways maintenance. 'The new signs were ordered immediately after the meeting. We hope the new signs will be installed early in the new year.' GoogleWoke Culture
