In **** Street?

This news story isn't interesting or remarkable in itself...

...until you come to this line:

"Lee Weavers, 60, from Coprolite Street, Ipswich..."

I think the estate agents and property speculators have been uncharacteristically slow off the mark with this one. Why haven't they been clamouring for the place to be re-named Sunny Place or Aspirational Boulevard? Is it simply that they're too unlettered to know what a coprolite is?

Having admired Ipswich Town's football style under Bobby Robson in the 1970s, I now have another reason to have a - as it were - soft spot for the place.
