Phantom settlement

Phantom settlements or Paper Towns are settlements that appear on maps but do not actually exist. They are either accidents or copyright traps. Notable examples include Argleton, Lancashire, UK and Beatosu and Goblu, Ohio, USA.〔(Punt, Steve (2010) Punt PI, Series 3, Episode 1, BBC Radio Four, Aired 17 September 2010 ) Accessed 17 September 2010〕
Agloe, New York, was invented on a 1930s map as a copyright trap. In 1950, a general store was built there and named Agloe General Store, as that was the name seen on the map. Thus the phantom settlement became a real one.
There are also misnamed settlements such as the villages of Mawdesky and Dummy 1325 in Lancashire on Google Maps.〔(Byrne, Michael (2009) See the new villages of Mawdesky and Dummy 1325 on Google Maps ), Nov 20 2009, ''Southport Visiter''. Accessed 21 May 2014〕
