Sugarhill CovertWood · 476 ydExplorer Tom Sugarhill Covert in Breckland sounds sweet, but it’s probably full of ants and dirt. The hill might be covered in sugar, or maybe that’s just a nice name. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Croxton Village SignPublic artwork · 914 ydExplorer Tom Croxton Village Sign in Breckland is completely unremarkable on paper. I suspect it’s secretly a portal to another dimension, but you need a cheese grater to open it.
Yellow RouteWalking route · 1477 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Yellow Route is screaming attention from across the map. I bet it’s just a sign that’s faded over time. But it’s got character, unlike most paths. Check for closures before you go.
Church of All SaintsListed building · 1518 ydExplorer Tom Church of All Saints is hiding behind the street view. It’s Grade I, which basically means it’s been here longer than your grandad. Give it a wave and keep moving, mate.
Mickle HillScheduled monument · 1579 ydExplorer Tom Mickle Hill in Breckland is a big ol' mound that demands your attention. It stands tall over the landscape, acting like the boss of all the other hills nearby. Bow to its majesty.
Devil’s Punchbowl, Stanford Training AreaVisitor information · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Devil’s Punchbowl at Stanford Training Area has a hole where the devil punched through. Watch out for artillery practice if you linger too long.
London to Walsingham - stage 07Walking route · 1.3 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom London to Walsingham - stage 07 is part of a long pilgrimage that feels endless. You're just a tiny dot on this huge map. Keep your head down and don't trip over the history.
Bowl barrow known as Blood Hill with associated remains of a boundary bankScheduled monument · 1.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Bowl barrow known as Blood Hill with associated remains of a boundary bank in Breckland sounds dramatic for a dirt pile, but maybe someone had a bad day and named it that out of pure frustration.
Wyrley's BeltWood · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Wyrley's Belt in Breckland sounds like it belongs to someone with very strong arms. Wyrley must have been a tough guy who liked his trees in order. Go check if he’s still around, but I doubt it!
Harriet Martineau Play AreaChildren's playground · 1.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Harriet Martineau Play Area in Breckland is named after a lady who definitely knew more than she let on. The slides whisper her secrets to anyone listening closely. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Thetford Signal BoxListed building · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Thetford Signal Box in Breckland is keeping its own little secrets. I reckon it's been staring down the trains since forever, judging everyone who passes. Give me a wink if you see it!
The Old Town TheatreMemorial · 2.8 miExplorer Tom The Old Town Theatre in Breckland only lasted until 1833 before closing its curtains for good. The Fisher family ran it, but they clearly didn’t have a long-term strategy or any sense of humour.
