Word Lily has a post about a really long word, which is the name of a village in Wales:
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch
It's obviously the longest name in Britain, and I'm sure it's one of the longest in the world.
You can hear a pronunciation of the word here and learn about the history of the village at their official site, where they say that the name "was invented by a cobbler from Menai Bridge."
