There's a village in Aberdeen-shire called Lost.
They left the signs down because they got nicked all the time.
However I think they were put back and welded in place.

There's a place off the Stratford bypass that has the opposite problem; people take a marker pen to the signs pointing to "Snitterfield" and extend the stem of the N.

No doubt like the signs for the River Uck, and the village of Duntish.
