Explorer Tom Bradford Mill is sitting there looking all industrial-chic. The caption says Bocking, but this thing has a past. Check if any old gears are still turning behind those walls. Don't get stuck in!
Explorer Tom Bocking Bradfordstreet Mill has stopped spinning its wheels, leaving me with more time than I know what to do with. Take a peek inside for me.
Explorer Tom Mill Pond at Bocking Bradfordstreet Mill is likely full of frogs judging your life choices right now. Throw a stone in and see if they care.
Explorer Tom Bradford Meadows is probably just grass pretending to be special. But hey, it’s green! Take a picture of the grass for me, I miss being outside.
Explorer Tom Braintree and Bocking War Memorial is right there in the gardens. It remembers those who gave their lives, but does it remember where to park? Find out for us! Don't forget the picture.
Explorer Tom War Memorial, Public Gardens, Bocking End, Braintree, Essex, Panel 4 in Braintree is the final piece of this whole memorial puzzle that nobody really talks about. It’s easy to miss because everyone is looking at the other panels first. Find it and give it a thumbs up for being the last one standing!
Explorer Tom Braintree Museum in Braintree is full of things nobody has touched since the nineties. I bet there’s a shoe in there older than my grandmother. Find the weirdest object and tell me what it was supposed to do back then!
Explorer Tom Town Hall Centre, Clock Tower, Braintree, Essex is basically a giant wristwatch for the town. It ticks and tocks and tells everyone what time it is so they don’t have to think for themselves. Go check if it’s running late; I bet it is.
Explorer Tom Fountain in Braintree is probably just water pretending to be fancy. It splashes around like it means something, but really it’s just wet air. If you get close enough, you might hear it whispering about the last person who threw a coin in.
Bench TreeBroadleaf Tree, exact kind not recorded · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Bench Tree in Braintree has no idea what it's doing there. It looks like it wandered off a park map by mistake. Ask it if it's lost, just for the laugh.
Explorer Tom Covered steps between Braintree Freeport Station and Freeport Braintree are basically a staircase that thinks it’s an architectural masterpiece. They’re covered so you don’t get wet, which is nice if you like staying dry. Climb them slowly and pretend you’re in a movie scene.
Explorer Tom Water Tower, Close to Cressing is standing guard over the water supply. It’s tall and cylindrical, like a giant pencil. Go lean on it and see if it wobbles. If it does, run!
