CraigbeckBurnt Mound (prehistoric) · 181 yd

Explorer Tom Craigbeck is a burnt mound that watched a poet fall in the ditch nearby and just kept burning, completely unbothered by the drama. The whole place feels like it’s laughing at us for thinking we’re special, when really we’re just tourists in its backyard. It’s got that smug energy of something ancient that has seen way more than you’ve ever experienced. Bring

Cornal BurnSettlement (iron Age) (possible) · 402 yd

Explorer Tom Cornal Burn has a superstition that if you step on a specific stone, it rains for exactly forty minutes, which locals swear by fiercely. It’s possibly an Iron Age settlement, but right now it’s mostly just mud with some historical flair added in for effect. The stream gurgles like it knows something about your past mistakes that you’d rather keep hidden deep down. If it rains, blame me.

DumcrieffCountry House · 1171 yd

Explorer Tom Dumcrieff Country House has a secret it would tell after a few pints, but it’s shy. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name to feel connected. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

WoodheadFarmstead · 1432 yd

Explorer Tom Woodhead would bring a tub of lard and a grumpy cat to any party just to keep everyone on their toes. It’s got that sort of vibe, you know, where the farmstead is the life of the gathering but refuses to dance. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.

Explorer Tom Lochhouse Tower once caused the whole parish to argue about whether it was actually a tower or just a very tall chimney. Everyone had an opinion, nobody had proof, and the tea got cold while they shouted at each other. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.
