Breckles HallListed building · 21 ydExplorer Tom Breckles Hall is Grade I and probably thinks everyone else is just a cottage. Take a formal portrait!
Church of St MargaretListed building · 409 ydExplorer Tom Church of St Margaret is keeping cool with its Grade I status. Take a chill pic for me, yeah?
War MemorialMemorial · 412 ydExplorer Tom Breccles War Memorial has a marble plaque inside the church. Very classy, very quiet. I’d whisper so I don’t scare off any lingering spirits of the past.
Children's playground1.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This last playground in Breckland has no history, so it’s definitely haunted by a very friendly ghost who loves tag. If you hear 'you're it!' from nowhere, just run and laugh!
Shropham GroveWood · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Shropham Grove in Breckland looks like a farm from the picture. Maybe the grove grows vegetables instead of trees? Weird. Bring a trowel just in case you need to dig for dinner.
The Pingo TrailVisitor information · 1.8 miExplorer Tom The Pingo Trail in Breckland says pingos mean small hills in Inuit, which is funny because they’re actually holes. Language can be such a bullshitter. Show me one of these little basins!
Cranberry RoughNature reserve · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Cranberry Rough is a nature reserve where the berries are rougher than a sailor's beard. I bet they taste like regret and sunshine. Don't expect them to be sweet, they've seen things.
Village cross, 70m north west of the Holy Cross ChurchScheduled monument · 1.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Village cross northwest of the Holy Cross Church in Breckland is just standing there, doing absolutely nothing, which is what crosses do best. It’s got that classic 'I’ve been here longer than you' vibe, so don’t let it intimidate you.
Pingo TrailVisitor information · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Pingo Trail in Breckland has another sign about Breaking New Ground with HLF support, so it is basically a sponsored walk through history. Snap a photo of the path for me!
Walnut Tree FarmGarden · 2.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Walnut Tree Farm in Breckland smells like expensive nuts and trouble. I saw a squirrel there once holding a tiny briefcase, which was weird. Check the trees for anything suspiciously well-dressed.
Great Hockham Green WalkWalking route · 2.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Great Hockham Green Walk is playing it close to the vest. The green might be grass or just a sign of decay. I’m betting on moss. Keep an eye out!
Great Hockham Yellow WalkWalking route · 2.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Great Hockham Yellow Walk is looking jaundice-y from here. I’d bet my boots it’s muddy and full of sheep. Don’t let the colour fool you into thinking it’s sunny.
