Ramhill BridgeRoad Bridge · 943 yd

Explorer Tom Ramhill Bridge has no idea when it was built, which is basically a free pass for whatever nonsense you want to believe about the bargain that got it off the ground. Maybe someone traded a sheep and a secret handshake? Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard over the years.

MollanceEnclosure (possible) · 981 yd

Explorer Tom Mollance makes a weird rattling sound at night! I reckon it’s trying to shake off the dust from being a 'possible' enclosure for so long. It’s got an entrance that looks like it’s been waiting for a very specific, very polite visitor. Linger a bit; it’s not going anywhere and neither should you.

Collin HillField Boundary(s), Plantation Bank · 1371 yd

Explorer Tom Collin Hill in Dumfries and Galloway has field boundaries and a plantation bank that look like someone drew a line and gave up. It’s definitely hiding a biscuit tin underneath all that ancient hedgerow nonsense. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next.

GerrantonFarmhouse, Farmstead · 1380 yd

Explorer Tom Gerranton’s name actually means 'Place Where Nobody Knows Why It Exists,' which is spot on. I’m pretty sure that’s what it stands for, though no one has checked the dictionary in years. It just sits there looking suspiciously like a puzzle piece from the wrong box. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

Explorer Tom Buittle Place in Dumfries and Galloway is a medieval tower house that needs a dating profile. It would write: 'Sturdy, loyal, slightly damp, looking for someone who appreciates silence.' It’s got that serious, brooding vibe down to a science. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
