Don't you mean Roanoke? James was the first succesful colony but Roanoke was the first British colony in the Americas, founded by Sir Walter Raleigh himself!dancinginfernal said:Jamestown, after the first American colony founded by the British.

It is in Lancashire yes.rs2000 said:Is that Lancashire? If so i've been through it and your right :/Rawne1980 said:Burnley.
It's the town I live in and it already looks like a half destroyed settlement from Fallout, why change the name it won't make it any better.
Actually, I live in a fairly modern estate, and I don't think these houses are meant to last the centuries, unfortunately.rs2000 said:Well i guess one of the differences between U.K & America is that our houses are either brick or stone, you don't get many wood houses at all so a greater proportion of ours would still be standing, the only down side being our major cities are a damn site closer together so any nuclear strike would affect the majority of built up and/or residential areas.
But i digress, i think that most would be named after the area they are in or if you have a big enough ego, after yourself!
So either Kingsway, Kirkby Crossing or Staleyville
