Near where my nana used to lived there was a road called "Burnt Store". And yes it's because a very very long time ago there was a store there that burned down. So people would say go down to the burnt store and turn right.... well then the store distintigrated, but all knew that was where it was so eventually the highway dept put up a road sign: Burnt Store Rd.
