Security through obscurity

I was in Abbeystead earlier today; I took a few photos, but I'm not skillful enough to make good use of poor light, so mightn't publish more than a couple, instead referring you back to this earlier visit.

Abbeystead is a tiny hamlet in very rural Wyresdale, with scattered farms centred on a school, manor farm, phone box, postbox and noticeboard. Glancing at the latter, I saw a handwritten request that anyone who finds the described necklace hang it on the noticeboard for the owner to collect.

I doubt there are many places where one could do that.
