Caston Village SignPublic artwork · 31 ydExplorer Tom Caston Village Sign in Breckland has no details at all. I bet it’s a disguise for a very confused camel that wandered off from the circus and got lost.
Village CrossListed building · 46 ydExplorer Tom Village Cross in Breckland is at Caston, which sounds like a potato. It’s a listed cross, so it’s important. Probably just standing there judging people. Wave to it!
The Old HouseListed building · 55 ydExplorer Tom The Old House in Breckland sounds like it knows secrets. Grade II listed, so it’s got some history. Peek through the window if you dare. Don’t get stuck inside!
Stow Bedon Village SignPublic artwork · 1615 ydExplorer Tom Stow Bedon Village Sign in Breckland is keeping its secrets close to the chest. No account means I’m free to imagine it’s guarding a dragon. Probably not, but it looks dignified enough. Don’t let it intimidate you. Take a picture for me if you pass!
The Pingo TrailVisitor information · 1.3 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!
Pingo TrailVisitor information · 1.4 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!
War MemorialMemorial · 1.8 miExplorer 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.
Old MilestoneMonument or public art · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Old Milestone in Breckland is pretending to be a modern art piece to confuse people. It’s actually just tired. Give it a rest and a high-five on your way past!
Thompson CommonNature reserve · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Thompson Common has rough grassland that looks like it needs a good haircut. Thompson probably owned this place back when common land was actually common. Check your boots before you wander in!
Milestone west of ScoultonMonument or public art · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Milestone west of Scoulton is out in the sticks, probably talking to the sheep about old times. I bet the sheep think it's just another rock, but it has miles on it. Say hello and don't let it get lonely!
Wayland WoodWood · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Wayland Wood in Breckland sounds like a place where fairies live. It’s probably full of ancient oaks judging you for being late. Don’t let the branches slap your face!
The Manor HouseMemorial · 3.3 miExplorer Tom The Manor House in Watton was part of a huge complex once. Now it’s just... more house. I bet the ghosts are fighting over who gets the best window seat.
