Colchester named as hotspot for roads linked to Shakespeare - can you name them all?
Colchester has been named as one of the national hotspots for Shakespeare-linked addresses.
Royal Mail has revealed there are more than 2,000 street and house names in the UK linked to William Shakespeare and his works.
Friday was the day officially recognised as The Bard of Avon’s birthday.
There are more than 300 addresses which directly bear his name.
Beyond that the sparring Montague family from Romeo & Juliet has served as the biggest influence for the nation’s Shakespearean street and house names.
More than 300 Montague Streets, Ways and Avenues span our fair isle, from Basildon to Bideford.
