Frances Hodgson Burnett, author of the intendedly morally-improving novel Little Lord Fauntleroy, spent her early childhood in Burnage. I understand that there is at present an "anonymous UK artist", working chiefly with spray paint and stencils, who goes by the pseudonym of Fauntleroy Snooty. This name would seem clearly to be in allusion to two different fictional juvenile-aristocrat heroes: the aforementioned "little lord"; and the hero of a very long-running strip in the Beano kids' comic: Lord Snooty and his [to the lad's credit, largely proletarian] Chums. The Beano is published in the city often reckoned as Britain's kids'-comics capital: Dundee.
