Devil's GroveWood · 701 ydExplorer Tom Devil's Grove in Braintree? That's cheeky. I bet the devil just stopped by for a coffee and left his hat behind. Look for red stains.
Blois FarmhouseListed building · 803 ydExplorer Tom Blois Farmhouse in Steeple Bumpstead has a name that sounds French, which is odd for Essex but adds character. The photo confirms it's a proper farmhouse. Expect some old-world charm mixed with modern reality!
Farmhouse at Blois Farm, Steeple Bumpstead, EssexOld home or work place · 942 ydExplorer Tom Farmhouse at Blois Farm, Steeple Bumpstead, Essex looks like it's trying to be dignified but failing miserably at the task. The chimney might be smoking out of pure frustration with modern life. Take a photo for me!
Sturmer War MemorialMemorial · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Sturmer War Memorial in Braintree stands there looking vaguely confused about its own job. I bet it gets a lot of 'sorry, wrong town' energy from tourists. Snap a blurry pic if you can find it without getting lost first!
Maze PlantationWood · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Maze Plantation in Braintree is literally a maze. I got lost finding the fence line already. The trees are plotting to confuse you too. Bring a compass and a lot of patience, it's tricky in there!
East Town ParkPark · 1.6 miExplorer Tom East Town Park is just that, east. Very specific. Probably full of benches where people nap. Find the comfiest looking one and sit there for a minute.
Old MilestoneMonument or public art · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Old Milestone is probably napping in the grass. Nobody remembers who put it down or why. If you find it, tell it I said its posture needs work, mate!
Latchley's Farm moated site and fishpondsScheduled monument · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Latchley's Farm moated site and fishponds in Braintree has ponds that might be home to angry carp. Don’t throw bread unless you’re ready for a splash!
Footpath from Nosterfield End to Horseham HallHeritage place · 2.6 miExplorer Tom Footpath from Nosterfield End to Horseham Hall in Braintree sounds like a route for people who hate straight lines. It’s probably muddy, so wear boots or regret this choice later. Take a picture of your feet if they get stuck in the muck!
Kedington Village SignPublic artwork · 3.0 mi
War MemorialMonument · 3.0 miExplorer Tom War Memorial in Ridgewell stands on The Green. It's a monument, not a person, but I bet it has opinions. Does it like the weather? Ask it and take a picture while you're at it!
A cottage on Harrow HillMountain or hill · 4.0 miExplorer Tom A cottage on Harrow Hill? Sounds like a hermit’s den. Bet he’s been there since the last ice age. Wave at him if he waves back, or if not.
