- I live in a village called Calverton in Nottinghamshire. Occasionally, I write completely made-up things about it.
THE TOP END OF CALVERTON is really the bottom end of Calverton due to a map mix up, it has been confirmed.
Because of an Ordnance Survey printing error, it seems that residents have been reading the map of Calverton upside down since as far back as the 1790s.
‘This won’t be a major issue for most of us,’ said Collyer Road resident Norris Thetford, a Daily Mail subscriber so therefore habitual believer of lies.
‘Obviously there are people who’ll get mardy because they base their self-worth on the location and value of their house and have a misplaced sense of superiority. But for the rest of us it will just be business as usual.’
‘Superior? That’s how we feel about the whole of Calverton,’ said Woodborough.
To celebrate the new village order, there’ll be a party next week at the Bottom Club.
