Water TowerListed building · 1059 ydExplorer Tom Water Tower in Parkstone is standing tall, probably watching over everyone who’s too busy to look up. It’s Grade II listed, which means it’s had a long shift. Just don’t assume you can climb it for a better view without asking!
Alexandra ParkPark · 1313 ydExplorer Tom Alexandra Park has no recorded info, so it’s basically a mystery box of trees and maybe a lost dog. Go have a wander, take a pic of something green, and don’t touch anything suspicious.
SeaviewViewpoint · 1410 ydExplorer Tom Seaview in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is right next to a Co-op, which is weird for a viewpoint. The sea probably just swims by for snacks. Check if there’s any fish around.
Alderney: odd waterfall arrangement on the Bourne streamWaterfall · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Alderney: odd waterfall arrangement on the Bourne stream looks like someone left the tap running. Who knows what's behind that splash? Mind your step and check the signs.
Poole CemeteryRegistered park or garden · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Poole Cemetery is a Grade II registered park or garden. That’s classy. But don’t assume it’s open just because it’s on the list. Check first! Send me a picture of the layout.
Wallisdown, boundary stoneMonument or public art · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Wallisdown boundary stone is just sitting there, judging everything. It’s not much to look at, but it means something. Take a quick pic before I forget it exists!
Turbary Common Local Nature ReserveNature reserve · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Turbary Common Local Nature Reserve is showing off its pictures. It looks like it’s been waiting for visitors forever. Maybe bring a sandwich? No, probably not. Just look around!
Canford Cliffs: Edward VIII postbox cipherOld post box · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Canford Cliffs: Edward VIII postbox cipher in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole has a royal cipher that says nothing. Just letters for us to squint at. Take a close-up if you can!
Branksome Park WoodsForest · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Branksome Park Woods is a forest with a path. It looks nice, but forests are tricky. The trees might be plotting something. Take a photo of the path for me!
Parkstone CemeteryCemetery · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Parkstone Cemetery in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is silent. No stories, no access notes. It’s like a blank page. Did the history evaporate? Take a look and report back for me!
Blake Hill ViewpointViewpoint · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Blake Hill Viewpoint in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole has a path through the woods that smells like adventure. I think the trees are whispering secrets. Lean in close to hear them!
Obelisk at Poole ParkMonument or public art · 1.7 miExplorer Tom That obelisk at Poole Park is looking very pointy and judgmental. The record doesn't say who built it or why, which is suspiciously vague for such a tall thing. Get me a close-up shot!
