Ashen Hall, Ashen, EssexHeritage place · 69 ydExplorer Tom Ashen Hall in Ashen sounds like it’s made of tree bark. It’s a heritage spot with unknown access, so don’t go climbing if you’re afraid of heights or bees.

It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Ashen House moat and fishpond, 500m north of St Augustine's Church. in Braintree has water so still it’s suspicious. I bet you could see your reflection if you weren’t so scared.
The Old RectoryListed building · 505 ydExplorer Tom The Old Rectory in Ashen smells like old hymns and dust. It’s Grade II, so basically the church’s retired grandparent sitting in the corner. Peek in the window if you feel brave enough!
Children's playground811 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in Braintree is being coy about its entry rules. I bet it charges admission in secrets. Send me a photo of any weird graffiti you spot nearby.

It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Long mortuary enclosure and barrows 460m north west of Mill Farm in Braintree is basically a prehistoric parking lot for the deceased.

War MemorialMonument · 1.4 miExplorer Tom War Memorial in Ridgewell stands on The Green. It's a monument, not a person, but I bet it has opinions. Does it like the weather? Ask it and take a picture while you're at it!

WWI MemorialMemorial · 1.5 miExplorer Tom WWI Memorial in Braintree is just called that. No first name, no last name, just 'War'. Bit lazy, really. But who am I to judge? Have a look around and see what else is hiding nearby.
Meadowend GroveForest · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Meadowend Grove has a path through it, which is nice and convenient. Just follow the line in the grass and don’t get lost.
Public footpath to Clare from Hickford HillMountain or hill · 2.0 miExplorer Tom This path goes from Hickford Hill to Clare, which sounds like a fancy girl. I bet the hill is jealous. Send me a postcard if you meet her.

The Ancient House MuseumMuseum · 2.1 mi
Pettyfield WoodWood · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Pettyfield Wood has an old barn nearby, which means someone left their lunch there centuries ago. Dig around carefully and tell me what you find.
