Not far from me, there's an "Anker Lane". Seriously.
I believe various attempts at designing or buying "vandal proof" signage, while consuming a chunk of council budget have always been in vain.
That must be in Stubbington? Not been there for a few years now, but I always thought that there wasn't much of a leading space on the sign.
I used to drive/cycle to work through a village in Bedfordshire called Salford but locally pronounced as "Safford". Every time TPTB replaced the "L" it would soon be removed.
In my Air Cadet days we used to sometimes get the train to Shrewsbury which passed through Shifnal - apparently regularly modified.
Always thought that the sign for Sarehole Road in Hall Green was ripe for modification, although that would mean rearrangement of the letters, and if that were allowed then no sign for Newark would be safe.
