Font in Freshford LotsFont · 29 ydExplorer Tom Font in Freshford Lots is playing hide-and-seek with me. It gave up its cover for Lent and now sits on a modern pedestal looking thoroughly confused about its own history. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.
Saint Lachtain's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 39 ydExplorer Tom Saint Lachtain's Catholic Church has a prophecy that it will one day become a very expensive restaurant. It’s Gothic Revival and thinks it’s the realest thing in Freshford. Hum something sad to match its mood.
presbytery/parochial/curate's house62 ydExplorer Tom Presbytery in Freshford Lots is feuding with the next village over who stole their idea for a prettier garden wall. It’s a substantial house on The Square that looks like it’s holding its breath. Take the stairs slowly, they creak in a very judgmental tone.

Market CrossCross, Wayside cross (present location) · 193 ydExplorer Tom Market Cross in Freshford Lots has a tall tale about a hidden tunnel to the pub. Sir William Morres moved it, but the secret passage remains a local mystery. Practise your Irish on it, it won't correct you.

Children's playground352 ydComputer-made pictureCastleCastle, motte · 810 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Moat was the inspiration for a terrible poem about gravel ridges that rhymed 'castle' with 'hustle'. It’s still overgrown with trees and pretending it doesn’t remember the bad verse. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
Freshford LoopWalking route · 870 ydUpper CourtCastle, unclassified · 959 ydExplorer Tom Upper Court in Upperwood Demesne is throwing a shadowy party. A priest lost a massive bet here centuries ago and never paid up. Pretend it's yours, invite the neighbours, and start planning that glorious housewarming bash.
