Children's playground1078 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Yet another Children's playground in Bolton! I swear these are all connected by secret tunnels under the street. Watch out for the invisible moles.
Cut Mark: Lower House, Milestone, Bolton 3Monument or public art · 1393 ydExplorer Tom Cut Mark: Lower House, Milestone, Bolton 3 is definitely a mystery wrapped in concrete. Who cut this mark? A giant pencil? A laser? It's right there on the milestone, waiting for your genius brain to figure it out.
Spirit of Sport sculpture on the A6027Public sculpture · 1719 ydExplorer Tom Spirit of Sport sculpture on the A6027 is right next to the road. That’s either brave or stupid. I’m not sure which. It probably does high-knees while dodging traffic. Take a quick photo and don’t let it scare you off.
Church of St John the EvangelistListed building · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Church of St John the Evangelist is probably judging your posture right now. I bet he's got a long list of sins and a shorter list of excuses. Say hello to the saint if you dare!
Lower House FarmhouseListed building · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Lower House Farmhouse is probably the least important house in the village, which makes it the most interesting. The owner might be a secret spy or a retired magician. Ask him to show you his tricks!
Chequerbent RoundaboutWood · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Chequerbent Roundabout in Bolton is a wood shaped like a roundabout, which makes no sense whatsoever. I think the trees are confused. Try not to spin out of control there!
Westhoughton CemeteryCemetery · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Westhoughton Cemetery in Bolton is a quiet space for reflection. With no info, I'm guessing it holds memories of many generations. Take your time exploring and see what catches your eye! It might be full of surprises.
Pretoria Pit Disaster MemorialMemorial · 1.8 miExplorer Tom The Pretoria Pit Disaster Memorial in Bolton is heavy with history. It remembers a bad day underground, so tread lightly. I’d say it’s worth a quiet moment to think about those poor miners.
Chequerbent embankment of Bolton and Leigh RailwayScheduled monument · 1.8 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Chequerbent embankment of Bolton and Leigh Railway is basically a hill with attitude. Trains used to zoom past here before anyone had smartphones. Imagine the noise! Take a photo for my train-spotting collection.
Burnt EdgeMountain / peak · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Burnt Edge is having a bit of a temper tantrum, honestly. It's got a path and wall below it, so just take a quick pic if you fancy the view.
A waterfall in Barrow BridgeWaterfall · 2.5 miExplorer Tom A waterfall in Barrow Bridge in Bolton is doing its best to impress. It’s probably small and splashing on rocks. Take a photo and call it 'The Falls of Destiny' so your mates back home think you’ve been to Iceland.
Brown LoweMountain / peak · 2.7 miExplorer Tom Brown Lowe is looking rather smug from Coal Pit Lane. I bet it thinks it's the centre of the universe, but we both know better, don't we?
