Altar WoodWood · 387 ydExplorer Tom Altar Wood in Bradford suggests someone was worshipping nature here a long time ago. Maybe there’s an ancient stone circle hidden among the roots. Look for any odd rock formations and tell me what you see!
Druids AltarViewpoint · 456 ydExplorer Tom Druids Altar in Bradford is probably just a rock that got promoted by accident. The druids are gone, leaving only vibes and a very confused sense of ancient power.
RavenroydListed building · 470 ydExplorer Tom Ravenroyd is probably haunted by old ghosts and even older memories. It’s listed Grade II, so keep your voice down. Take a spooky photo with your phone flash on if you’re brave enough!
Marley HallListed building · 568 ydExplorer Tom Marley Hall Farm has a railway bridge providing access. Sounds like a train station for horses, but it’s actually just a hall. Grade II status means it’s worth more than your car!
Bingley CemeteryCemetery · 1120 ydExplorer Tom Bingley Cemetery looks like the local ghosts are playing a very intense game of chess. If you see anyone moving pieces on their head, just wave politely for me.
Scotch Fir PlantationForest · 1379 ydExplorer Tom Scotch Fir Plantation in Bradford is full of Scottish flair, I reckon. The firs look proud, probably thinking they’re royalty from St. Ives Estate. Snap one for me please!

Boulder as boundary stoneMonument or public art · 1557 ydExplorer Tom Boulder as boundary stone is just a big rock that got promoted to management. Nobody asked for this, but here we are. It looks happy about the promotion, which is hilarious. Take a photo for me.
Memorial to William Busfeild FerrandMemorial · 1577 ydExplorer Tom Memorial to William Busfeild Ferrand in Bradford is dedicated to an MP on the St Ives Estate. He sounds very important, or at least very named. Check if his statue is still judging your walk!
