At least some have a sense of humour - there's a road by Sheffield
Airport called Letsby Avenue. Appropriately enough when it was built
the only building on it was a police station.

You have been bitten by a Urban Legend I think

Postcode of "police station" and Google/Multimap link please.


Streetmap claims that there is no "Letsby Avenue" anywhere in Britain.
