Explorer Tom West Cluden is still grumpy about the weather ruining its grain mill days. It’s a village with no date, so it’s just a moody collection of buildings. I bet it smells like flour and bad mood. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.
Explorer Tom The Twelve Apostles is a stone circle with a bronze figurine that looks like it’s judging your life choices from across the field. The name sounds biblical, but the road leading there makes you feel like you’ve committed a sin just by driving past it. I think the stones are tired of being compared to disciples. Bring your own legend, I've run out.
Explorer Tom Twelve Apostles has got a hidden message in its stones, but it’s just 'please stop touching us'. Twelve guys stood around for centuries judging everyone who wandered past without saying a word. It’s the ultimate silent treatment situation. Mind the nettles, they’re the real guards here.
Explorer Tom Dumfries, Castle Street took about four hundred cups of tea to build, mostly because someone kept spilling the mortar mix. It’s a fortified house with no assigned period, which basically means it’s been around since the concept of tea existed. Go now, before it gets famous.
