Explorer Tom Old Milestone in Breckland is guarding a very important secret: what’s actually under the grass. It’s probably nothing, but it’s trying its best to look scary. Don’t be fooled!
Explorer Tom Church of All Saints here in Breckland is doing the same thing as the other one, just in a different postcode. I bet they have a whole rivalry going on about who has the better stained glass windows.
Explorer Tom Santon Warren in Breckland is where the rabbits go when they want to feel like kings. It’s a nature reserve, so act natural and try not to spook the deer. They’re probably judging your boots right now.
Explorer Tom Thetford Forest is massive, like it swallowed half of Breckland. I saw it on New Year's Day once and it was freezing. Bring a scarf or your toes will vanish forever into the mud.
Explorer Tom Grimshoe burial mound in Breckland is an ancient resting place that might be under your feet. Access is unknown, so use signed paths only. It’s a scheduled monument. Take a picture for me if you see the mound peeking out.
Explorer 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.
Explorer 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.
Explorer 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.
Explorer Tom The Ancient House in Breckland was gifted by a prince in 1921. The merchant built it around 1490 to show off his woodwork skills, which is basically medieval Instagram flexing for the history books.
Explorer Tom Butten Island is just an island, but it thinks it's a nation. No one knows who Butten was, maybe a very lost Viking? It’s surrounded by water, so don't go getting your feet wet unless you like mud pies.
