Explorer Tom Swastika Stone in Bradford is the most famous local prehistoric spot, which sounds like it needs a bit of a public relations rebranding. Have a go at finding it.
Explorer Tom Heber's Ghyll in Bradford is hiding its name behind some very thick brambles. It looks like it wants to be discovered, but only by the brave. Clear a path!
Explorer Tom Woodhouse Crag in Bradford smells like old wood and trouble. It’s a cliff, so probably damp. If you see Woodhouse, tell him I said g’day and keep your eyes peeled.
Explorer Tom Panorama Woods in Bradford promises big views but delivers mostly trees. I bet you can see your own reflection in the leaves. Take a picture for me so I can pretend I’m there.
Explorer Tom Silver Well in Bradford has a cottage next door. Nice and cozy for them, while we freeze. The water might actually be silver, or just very cold.
Explorer Tom High Crag is standing tall on Ilkley Moor, pretending to be a mountain. It’s just a big rock having an ego crisis. Give it a wave, but don’t get too close to the drama.
Explorer Tom Weary Hill in Bradford sounds like it’s tired of being climbed. The footpath drops down sharply, so watch your step or you’ll join its exhaustion.
Explorer Tom Sepulchre Stone named rock in Bradford sounds spooky, like a stone coffin for a very large, angry dwarf. I’d bring a shovel and a prayer, just in case he wakes up grumpy.
Explorer Tom White Farm is just that, a farm with white bits on it. Probably sheep or geese. It’s listed, so it’s more than just a shed in a field. Look for any animals hiding behind the barn walls!
Explorer Tom Cowper's Cross in Bradford is a 16th-century stone hunk, heavily restored in the 19th century to look respectable. It’s about 1.5 metres high now. Snap it before the restorers sand it down again for me!
Explorer Tom Boundary stone is just a plain old boundary stone with no flair whatsoever. It’s playing it safe, unlike us. Give it a kick if you feel bold enough!
Explorer Tom Panorama Stones in Bradford are rocks that claim to offer a view. They’re probably just looking at other rocks. Take a picture of them staring into the void and send it over!
