That is a famous road which runs from London to Edinburgh via Leicestershire, 
and is also a steak sauce ;-)

No it isn't . . . but it might be used on a Welsh Rarebit . . .

I once knew a bloke whose family name was Cholmondley-Featherstonehaugh,
which was pronounced: 'chumley - fanshawe'.

Mind you with a name as posh as that one would have to be a bit careful 
if one described

him as a 'bloke'.
