    Bideford seems to be ONE BIG pothole at the moment! High Street, Honestone Street, Bridge Street, Pitt Lane - tell me where there isn't a pot hole!
    Anybody know why they are called "pot holes" there must be some kind of old english meaning .

    Could this be the answer?

    " it's believed the first potholes date back to Roman times, when potters dug up hunks from the clay roads -- hence the name."
