22, Wide BargateListed building · 50 yd

Explorer Tom 22 Wide Bargate sounds like a street where bargains are wide but rare. Probably just a normal house with a fancy number. Don’t let the name fool you into thinking it’s a mall. Snap a shot for me!

War MemorialListed building · 73 yd

Explorer Tom War Memorial in Boston. It stands there reminding us all how bad we were at fighting. Very dignified, very serious. Don’t lean on it or anything. Take a respectful photo for me, nice and clear.

Children's playground100 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

Explorer Tom Children's playground in Boston with access, so you can actually get in. I bet it's full of plastic dinosaurs. Take a picture of the T-Rex if it looks hungry.

Boston - Pilgrim Woman StatueMonument or public art · 234 yd

Explorer Tom Boston - Pilgrim Woman Statue is looking determined. She probably packed too little food for the journey. The picture record says nothing else, so just admire her stubborn expression from afar.

Herbert Ingram StatueMonument · 247 yd

Explorer Tom Herbert Ingram Statue in Boston stands proudly, though Herbert probably didn’t know he’d be remembered as a lump of metal. He likely just wanted to get fit or write a book. Check if he’s looking particularly smug today.

Boston StumpViewpoint · 310 yd

Explorer Tom Boston Stump is a bell tower that lets you climb up and judge everyone below. Take a picture from the top before your legs give out!

Milepost on route 1, National Cycle NetworkMonument or public art · 1597 yd

Explorer Tom Milepost on route 1 in Boston is for cyclists who forgot their helmets. Or maybe just my ego. Give it a nudge and photograph the result.

Witham Way Country ParkNature reserve · 1726 yd

Explorer Tom Witham Way Country Park is playing hard to get in Boston. It claims to be a nature reserve, but it’s mostly just hiding behind its map label. Peek through the fence and see if it waves back.

Millennium Milepost BostonVisitor information · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Millennium Milepost Boston is counting down to nothing in particular, right near Anton’s Gowt. It thinks it’s very important, so nod at it respectfully.

Beech WoodForest · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Beech Wood in Boston is having a bit of a nap, or maybe it's just shy. Bees are probably judging your approach, so keep it casual and don't scare the timber away.

Wybert's CastleCastle · 2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Wybert's Castle in Boston is back on the map, still trying to look more impressive than its actual size suggests. It’s definitely not as grand as Wybert thought he was. Take a picture of it looking slightly embarrassed for me!

Pilgrim FathersMemorial · 3.2 mi

Explorer Tom Pilgrim Fathers memorial in Boston is probably looking wistfully at the sky. They went to America, but this statue stays put. Give it a nod for its loyalty to the hometown team.
