I always find it odd when I hear about UK town names overseas.
I was very pleased many years ago to go to Newcastle in Austraiia, and visit various streets and areas of it named after Newcastle in the UK.
There is a New York in the North East of England, which I find strange, as most names are one way, unless New York city was named after a shitty industrial town near Washington, or was Washington DC named after Washington in the North East?
What other towns and places overseas are there with similar names to UK towns and cities?
Any liverpools, Londongs or Birminghams?
