The Milky WayInstallation · 189 ydCrawick MultiverseLandscape (21st Century) · 313 yd

Explorer Tom Crawick Multiverse is a twenty-first-century landscape that has caused the entire parish to argue about whether it is art or just a very expensive pile of stones pretending to be something else. It sits there looking like it belongs in a sci-fi movie, but with significantly less budget and a lot more mud on its shoes. The

Carco MainsFindspot (19th Century), Whetstone · 517 yd

Explorer Tom Carco Mains is boasting about its whetstone like it’s the Mona Lisa or something. I bet it claims to be older than time itself, just to see if you’ll believe it. It’s sitting in some farmland, probably judging your footwear while it sharpens its own ego. Pretend you’re an expert and give it a thumbs up.

CrawickFindspot (19th Century), Hammer (stone) · 653 yd

Explorer Tom Crawick in Dumfries and Galloway is basically a colliery that lost its memory and found a hammer instead. It’s got no assigned period, which means it could be from yesterday or last Tuesday, totally confusing the historians. I bet it would win best in show at the county fair for most mysterious object. Ring your granny and tell her where you are.

Explorer Tom Crawick Viaduct is a 19th-century railway bridge that groans at night like it’s remembering its ex. It makes a sound that sounds suspiciously like a disappointed sigh every time the wind hits the arches just right. You can almost hear it complaining about the maintenance schedule while the trains rattle past. Hum something sad nearby, it adds atmosphere.

Explorer Tom Sanquhar Castle survived a storm that it definitely exaggerates to sound tougher than it actually is, claiming it held back the sea with its bare hands. It’s a medieval castle in a small town, so it gets a lot of attention for doing very little. Tell your mates you found it first.
