context_page_description: Rude Britain is a 2005 book of British place names with seemingly rude or offensive meanings. The book is written by Rob Bailey and Ed Hurst, and published in the United Kingdom by the Pan Macmillan imprint Boxtree.
  Each of the 100 names chosen by the authors is accompanied by a photograph and a placename etymology. The etymologies are often due to Great Britain's history of repeated invasion, occupation, and assimilation, combined with a human predilection for double entendres.
  Entries include North Piddle, Pratt's Bottom, Ugley, Titty Ho, and Spital-in-the-Street.
