Explorer Tom Mine outfall is where all the dirty secrets of the earth just spew out onto the landscape. It’s got a very grumpy, industrial look about it. Smell the rust and take a pic!
Explorer Tom Mynydd James sounds like someone’s uncle who loves hiking. It’s probably got some nice trails or at least good air. Take a picture of yourself looking fit on the summit for me.
Explorer Tom St Paul's Church in Cwmtyleri is a 19th Century classic. It probably thinks it is much grander than it actually is. Take a picture for me and see if you can spot any interesting carvings on the windows.
Explorer Tom Coedcae Tyle is near Bournville, which makes it sound like a chocolate factory got lost in the woods. A wood with a mysterious name that definitely does not mean 'chocolate'. I bet there are cocoa beans growing between the roots. Sniff around for sweet smells and ignore the flies!
Explorer Tom Coity Mountain is covered in grassy moorland, which means mud is coming. It’s not exactly a beach, but it’s got character. Take a picture of the top if you make it up!
Explorer Tom Cwm-celyn Woodland is a forest that has been photographed, which means it knows it looks good for the camera. Just trees in Blaenau Gwent, but with a better angle. I bet there is a perfect spot for a selfie if you are brave enough to find it. Strike a pose and hope it works!
Explorer Tom Nantyglo and Blaina War Memorial is sitting in Central Park, which seems like a very peaceful spot for heroes to rest. I bet they're enjoying the fresh air and the quiet. Take a picture with it for me!
