Kentie BurnStructure · 801 yd

Explorer Tom Kentie Burn has a raging feud with the rain, convinced that every drop is personally aimed at making its structure look even more mysterious. It stands there dripping wet and annoyed, refusing to dry off because it’s committed to the bit. The locals probably think it’s cursed, but I think it just needs a good towel and some respect. Go now, before it gets famous.

Rig of StroanEnclosure, Sheepfold · 1175 yd

Explorer Tom Rig of Stroan is teaching sheep how to fold their wool into medieval patterns, which sounds exhausting but probably looks great from a drone. It’s got that ‘I’m an artisan now’ vibe without the apron. If you see any sheep looking confused, give them a wink; they know exactly what they’re doing.

Pulnagashel BurnFarmstead, Structure · 1742 yd

Explorer Tom Pulnagashel Burn has the cheek to be both a farm and a structure, which is like saying I'm both a chef and a stove. It’s got that confused energy where it doesn't know if it's a house or a river. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.

Glentrool ForestForest · 1.1 miPalgowanCorn Drying Kiln, Field Boundary · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Palgowan is sick of people asking if it’s still dry, even though it hasn't been used in centuries. The corn kiln stands there looking smug while the field boundary just exists for no apparent reason other than tradition. It’s a bridge with attitude and a history that refuses to be boring. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
