We were in Worcestershire over the week end (photos will be published when I get a minute or six) and there is a little rhyme about several of the villages we passed through which goes:-

There's Peopleton, Poppleton, Tibberton and Crowle,
North Piddle, Wyre Piddle and Piddle in the Hole.

Piddle is an old dialect word for stream or brook.
