View of the fingerpost sign on a bench in the village square Looks like a vehicle has crashed into the traditional fingerpost sign (as well as a nearby lamp post) on Mistley&#039;s village square and, rather ingeniously, the sign has been maintained by someone placing it on the nearby bench. Looking south-southwest.
