Town Hall Centre, Clock Tower, Braintree, EssexCastle, fort or tower · 686 ydExplorer Tom Town Hall Centre, Clock Tower, Braintree, Essex is basically a giant wristwatch for the town. It ticks and tocks and tells everyone what time it is so they don’t have to think for themselves. Go check if it’s running late; I bet it is.
FountainMonument · 724 ydExplorer Tom Fountain in Braintree is probably just water pretending to be fancy. It splashes around like it means something, but really it’s just wet air. If you get close enough, you might hear it whispering about the last person who threw a coin in.

Bocking windmillScheduled monument · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Bocking windmill is standing tall, pretending it still grinds grain. It’s just a big tower now, but it’s got style. Go climb it if you’re brave enough, or just take a photo from the bottom.
