Signposts aren't necessarily taxpayer funded. For example, I've been trying to get one in Burnley for Mid Pennine Gallery and it would cost £2,000 to do (before you start on one - we're not going to have it done). My point is that you have to apply to the Council for permission, if they grant it you have to pay them before they'll put it up.
Abbey Grange has been there a really long time, so I can only assume that the sign has been there a long time too! It used to be a fairly big shopping area before the Arndale was built so perhaps that was how it became eligible.
