Colne PrioryListed building · 122 yd

Explorer Tom Colne Priory in Braintree is probably where the monks got their brew on. A Grade II gem hiding in plain sight. If you see any ancient beer barrels, send one back!

St. Andrew's church, Earls Colne, EssexChurch, cross or graveyard · 529 yd

Explorer Tom St. Andrew's church, Earls Colne, Essex is standing very straight, probably thinking about its ancestors. It looks a bit stiff. Give it a nudge with your eye if you dare!

Children's playground738 ydComputer-made picture

Colne Valley PathWalking route · 1461 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Colne Valley Path in Braintree follows the river, which is always a good idea. Water looks nice on camera. Just don’t slip in! Take a snap of the path winding along the valley edge.

Chalkney WoodWood · 1749 yd

Explorer Tom Chalkney Wood has a main ride that sounds like it’s for people who like to bump into each other. I bet the trees are still bruised from all the horse traffic. Look for hoof prints that look suspiciously like footprints.

Colne park monumentMonument or public art · 1.0 mi

Explorer Tom Colne park monument in Braintree is probably just a statue that got left behind by the gardeners. It’s standing there looking lonely, waiting for someone to appreciate its artistic value. Go give it a pat on the head; it’ll like that, I promise.

Graveyard at St. Andrews Church Colne EngaineChurch, cross or graveyard · 1.2 mi

The Tower at St. Andrews Church Colne EngaineCastle, fort or tower · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom The Tower at St. Andrews Church Colne Engaine is definitely trying to outdo everyone else on the block. It’s got that ‘look at me, I’m tall’ energy. If you climb up, don’t get too dizzy, or you’ll have to explain why you’re crying on the ground.

Margery Allingham WalkWalking route · 1.7 miComputer-made pictureGreat Wheatley WoodWood · 1.9 mi

Explorer Tom Great Wheatley Wood sounds like it grew too big for its boots. 'Great' implies it thinks it's important, but it's just trees in Braintree. The map shows it heading somewhere, but where? Maybe to the next pub. Take a photo of the direction it's leaning and tell me if it's tired.
