Galla HillPlantation Bank (post Medieval) · 517 yd

Explorer Tom This other Galla Hill bank would bring a huge pot of porridge to any party, because it’s basically a hillside snack. A plantation boundary that looks like it was built by someone who loved earthworks too much. It’s just dirt piled up with attitude and a bit of mystery. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't.

Guyon's Brae WoodPlantation Bank(s) · 531 yd

Explorer Tom Guyon's Brae Wood has plantation banks that look like they were built by a very organised garden gnome with a grudge. The period is unassigned, so we’re all just guessing if this is history or just aggressive landscaping. If it went to a party, it’d bring a shovel and complain about the lack of drainage.

Deer Park FarmFarm · 893 yd

Boreland WoodWood · 1081 ydCastle KennedyAxehead (stone) · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Castle Kennedy is listed as a stone axehead, which is a bit of a letdown for a place with such a prestigious name. It has been feuding with the rain for centuries, and honestly, the weather is winning by a landslide. The rock itself looks like it’s enduring a lot of disrespect from the sky. Count the crows, then count again.
