Back in the 60s the Midland Red time-table books which I collected as a lad, carried the following note:

Omnibuses will stop anywhere to pick up or set down passengers, except when ascending steep hills or in districts where a system of bus stop signs has been instituted or where prohibited by the Traffic Commissioners.

Not such a strange idea to me then that some areas still have a flexible approach to stage carriage services.

Elsewhere on the internetz, someone has posted a photo of a bus stop in rural Germany, with two armchairs, a small table with table cloth and flowers, net curtains on the window, a bike rack, a bin and... a timetable!

There is a very similar styled bus stop at the end of Lankelly lane, Fowey
