Carriedow Hill

Explorer Tom Corriedow Bridge has got a ghost who is way too lazy to haunt it properly, so he just sits on the parapet scrolling his phone. It’s a period-unassigned road bridge that refuses to commit to an era or a hauntings schedule. Go at sunset and thank me later for the tip.

Explorer Tom Craigdarroch in Dumfries and Galloway is a set of cropmarks that ended up in the wrong place because the tractor driver was looking for his keys. It’s just a ghost in the field pretending to be something important while the wheat grows right over its head without even noticing. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.

Explorer Tom Craiglearan is that 19th-century lodge in Dumfries and Galloway that thinks it’s fancy but is just a gate with attitude. It probably hums 'Bohemian Rhapsody' to itself because it feels misunderstood by the sheep. Don’t let its pretension fool you; it’s mostly wind and ambition out there. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.

Explorer Tom Castle Hill would post a selfie with the caption 'Still standing while you all trip over your own feet' to its massive follower count of zero people. It’s got that classic fort vibe but without the actual castle, which is like having a body without a soul. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.

Explorer Tom Cornharrow Hill has a cairn that’s so unassigned it could be from any century, or none at all. There are wind turbines right next door now, which is like putting a neon light on a shy introvert. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.

Explorer Tom Sundaywell is a seventeenth-century farmstead with a medieval tower house attached, which smells like old hay and questionable decisions. According to Tom, it smells like a sheep that just rolled in mud and then regretted it. It’s got that rustic charm that makes you want to sit down and never move again. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.
