Arkleton LochanCultivation Remains (medieval) - (post Medieval), Ring Enclosure (post Medieval) · 1048 yd

Explorer Tom Arkleton Lochan is cultivation remains that look like someone tried to farm the hillside and then got tired halfway through the first row. It’s a ring enclosure that would be the person at a wedding who eats all the cake before the toast and apologises while licking their fingers. The lochan part suggests there’s water somewhere, but it’s probably just a puddle pretending to be a lake.

GlendivanFarmhouse · 1089 yd

Explorer Tom Glendivan Farmhouse has a secret it would only tell after three pints of stout and a very long sigh. The name sounds like a wizard who lost his wand in a field, but it’s just a sturdy old place with no date tag. Practise your Irish on it, it won't correct you.

Hartrith RigSheepfold (19th Century) · 1282 yd

Explorer Tom Hartrith Rig in Dumfries and Galloway holds a fake world record for being the most boring 19th-century sheepfold ever documented! It’s not even trying, which is why everyone secretly admires its chill vibe. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.

Explorer Tom “Ewes Parish Church has been standing since 1867, proudly showing off its war memorials while quietly keeping secrets in its churchyard that would make your head spin. It’s got a burial ground from way back, so it’s basically a multi-generational gossip hub where every generation adds their own little drama to the mix. Go back

Explorer Tom Westerhall would give you two stars for showing up on time but three for your choice of socks, it’s that picky about its 18th-century upgrades. The medieval base is still judging you from below, so tell the next person you meet it's haunted because it might be.

Gallowside WoodWood · 4.1 miLangholm CastleTower House (16th Century) · 4.2 mi

Explorer Tom Langholm Castle started because two lads made a bet in the pub that one could build a tower before the other finished his ale. He won, but he’s been stuck up there ever after. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography.
