Explorer Tom Church of Holy Trinity in Horwich is keeping its secrets locked tight. I bet the pews are still warm from some ancient gossip session. Peek inside and see if anyone's hiding!
Explorer Tom Memorial Forest in Bolton is next to Marklands Reservoir, which means it's probably damp and misty all day long. It's a nice place for a soggy walk. Bring a towel just in case.
Explorer Tom Victorian Postbox in Old Station Park, Horwich is guarding the park like a tiny red soldier. It’s seen more trains go by than I’ve had coffees this week. See if there are any old letters stuck under the flap for us to read.
Explorer Tom Horwich Heritage Centre has an old boundary marker. That’s my favourite kind of stone! It just sits there, telling people where they can’t go. Very cheeky. Give it a nod and move along, don’t get stuck on the border.
Explorer Tom This War Memorial in Bolton is just standing there looking proud. I suspect it’s seen more rain than sunshine. Give it a wave and maybe a quick photo before the pigeons land on its head.
Explorer Tom Wilderswood in Bolton is a wood that sounds like it belongs in a fairy tale but feels like a Tuesday afternoon. The trees are probably plotting something against the birds up high.
Explorer Tom White Brow has a lovely path on top, which is suspiciously convenient. It's probably hiding something up there, so keep your eyes peeled for secrets.
Explorer Tom Adam Hill is guarding its stone stile like a dragon with hoard. Don't let it bully you over the fence; just hop across and wave hello to me.
Explorer Tom Waterfall, Tiger's Clough in Bolton sounds dangerous, like a big cat lives there. Probably just water and some damp rocks. If you hear a growl, it’s likely just the wind or your stomach rumbling from lack of snacks.
Explorer Tom Nat Lofthouse Statue at Bolton Wanderers FC is definitely more serious than the other one. This one belongs to the club, so treat it with respect. It’s probably judging your team selection right now. Don’t mess up.
Explorer Tom Boundary Stone with wall and stream beyond in Bolton is just a rock saying 'stop here'. But why? The stream looks inviting. I bet the stone gets jealous when the water flows past it without stopping.
