Brian Borus WellWell · 420 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Brian Borus Well in Elmvale is named after a king, but the locals call it 'Boru', which means red cow. So much for royalty. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice, even if the audience is one sheep.
Poplar BridgeBridge · 1243 ydExplorer Tom Poplar Bridge is a hump-back charmer from 1810 that looks like it's trying to hide a secret in its arches. I bet it was built to impress some very serious horse. Take a mate and argue about whether it was for horses or ghosts; neither will admit defeat.
