Weirdness at Taffington trying to build brahmin trough, bell, and caravan post

The other day I noticed I couldn't build a trader's caravan post at Taffington. I've completed the appropriate quest to unlock and have and can build at other settlements. But, at Taffington, the caravan post, along with the bell and brahmin trough, doesn't even appear in the workshop menu.

Today, while at Taffington, I decided use the Settlement Menu Manager repair holotape. After running it, these three items were back. I built two caravan posts and closed workshop mode. Then, I immediately reopened workshop mode and all three had disappeared again.

I just realized if I open workshop mode on the north side of Taffington, closest to Medford Hospital, all three are in the menu available to build. If I move south towards Bunker Hill, they remain in the menu, but ghost out and will not build. If I open workshop mode on the south side of Taffington, they are not in the menu.

Anyone else ever had anything like this happen? Workshop items either in or out of the menu based on where you are in a settlement?

Presently, I'm treating it like a feature and not a bug, but I'd like to know if this is the telltale of something or might point to a ticking time bomb.
 
I must admit, i have never had these issues, but do you have anything that alters Taff in anyway, a mod, or have to used a scrap mod?

Nope and never.

I went ahead and started up a brand new game. I reinstalled the game and wiped everything clean for a Conqueror run. Just thought it was strange that whatever it was seemed to be completely dependent on where you stood in the settlement.
 
I had a problem with bells before in Taffinton. It was instabell and reported that 0 settlers found
Moved the bell nearer to the house and it worked.
It happens with some SS functions like rebuild local data too

Also about taffinton, some placed items was duplicated for me in taffinton, occupying the same space. like if you scrap a safe, another is under it. Noticed it right after 1st city upgrade

Maybe just a Fallout 4 glitch. I will be heading over there soon, so I will have a look, be interesting to see for myself
