Crossmichael Parish Church, Round Tower and St Michael's CrossBurial Ground (18th Century), Church (18th Century), Churchyard (18th Century), Covenanters Grave (17th Century), Tower (16th Century), War Memorial (20th Century) · 279 ydExplorer Tom Crossmichael Parish Church has more labels than a supermarket checkout, with everything from covenants to war memorials stacked on top of each other. It nearly became famous just because someone left their phone in the tower for three days, but we’ll keep that quiet. It’s got a lot to say if you listen closely. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.
Crossmichael, War MemorialWar Memorial (20th Century) · 373 ydExplorer Tom Crossmichael's war memorial is standing there thinking about how tourists from Dublin keep walking past it without even a nod. It’s got that 20th-century stoicism that says, 'I don't need your attention, I have my own issues.' The wind here is particularly rude, too, so hold onto your hat. If it rains, blame me.

Threave CastleArtillery Fortification (15th Century), Castle (medieval), Harbour (14th Century) · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Threave Castle in Dumfries and Galloway is getting picked on by the wind because it refuses to put on a coat, despite having guns from the 1500s to prove its toughness. It’s got a harbour that looks like it was built for yachts, not pirates, which is a bit of a letdown for the romance factor. The whole place feels like it’s waiting for someone to finally count the crows and give up. C
