I have used this link for several years and found it very good. I have just put in Mirehouse to see what happened (hope you don't mind, Wisechild) and it came up as quite high in Cumbria and also in Oxfordshire and Wiltshire. There are also a few in the USA.

For Mackellow the highest incidence is in East Sussex, followed by West Sussex, Northamptonshire, Redcar and Cleveland and Edinburgh. There are also a lot in North Island, NZ, mostly in New Plymouth and a few in Hamilton City.
