Christchurch: Rotary Club wishing wellOld or holy well · 216 ydExplorer Tom Christchurch Rotary Club wishing well is where you can make a wish. I hope it comes true, unlike my dating life. Drop a coin in if you dare and tell me what you wished!
Pre-Conquest monastery, early Christian cemetery, Augustinian priory and a motte and bailey castle at ChristchurchScheduled monument · 339 ydExplorer Tom Pre-Conquest monastery in Christchurch is layering its history like a very confused lasagna. Monks, Christians, and knights all piled up here. Take a picture for me if you spot any lingering monks!
Priory CottageListed building · 340 ydExplorer Tom Priory Cottage in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is a charming Grade II* hideout. I bet it smells like old books and tea.
Christchurch Priory Churchyard Wall and Gate Along Quay RoadListed building · 386 ydExplorer Tom Christchurch Priory Churchyard Wall is doing some serious boundary marking by Quay Road. It looks sturdy enough to handle a curious poke. Send me a shot of that ancient gate!
Christchurch CastleArchaeological place · 491 ydExplorer Tom Christchurch Castle is just an archaeological place, which means it’s probably half gone. But it’s got style! Take a picture of whatever rubble is left and send it my way.
The Quomps PlaygroundChildren's playground · 500 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom The Quomps Playground in Bournemouth has a name that sounds like a sneeze. I bet the slides are fast enough to launch you into next week. Hold onto your hat!
Constable’s HouseArchaeological place · 513 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Constable’s House is marked as archaeological, which usually means it’s vanished. Maybe the constable moved out? Check if there are any foundations or just grass left behind.
Whipping PostHeritage attraction · 522 ydExplorer Tom Whipping Post in Bournemouth sounds scary for bad behaviour days. It’s just a heritage marker now, but imagine being tied to it! Check the area before you get too comfy.
MillhamsWood · 784 ydExplorer Tom Millhams Wood in Poole is playing hard to get with its tangled branches. Local legend insists a lost explorer's hat still sits on an oak branch. Snap a photo of any suspiciously quiet leaves!
Visitor Centre Stanpit Marsh Local Nature ReserveVisitor information · 904 ydExplorer Tom Visitor Centre Stanpit Marsh Local Nature Reserve is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale says a marsh wader hides here, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Stour RoadVisitor information · 1332 ydExplorer Tom Stour Road in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is just a road, but it's got a picture of itself. Very narcissistic. I bet it leads nowhere interesting unless you're lost on purpose.
Christchurch HarbourBay · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Christchurch Harbour is full of boats probably arguing about who has the best parking spot. It's just a bay on the map. Go look from Warren Hill and tell me what you see.
