Explorer Tom 84 Main Street in Haworth is home to The Cabinet of Curiosities. As the name suggests, it’s full of weird stuff. Don’t be surprised if you find a penguin or a time machine inside.
Explorer Tom The Black Bull Hotel and Attached Water Trough sounds like a pub where horses go to drink. Grade II listed, so the water trough might be full of history instead of just water.
Explorer Tom Statue of the Brontë sisters is just standing there looking like they’re plotting world domination from their parsonage. Snap them looking intense for me!
Explorer Tom Bronte Parsonage Museum is where the sisters wrote their spooky stories, so maybe they're still haunting the corners of the rooms. Don't let them scare you, just take a photo.
Explorer Tom Jaggers Quarry is now a wood, which means the rocks got tired of being dug up. There’s a car park path right through it. Don’t let the parked cars scare you away from the adventure!
Explorer Tom Penistone Hill in Bradford has a name that makes people blush if they’re not careful. It’s just sitting there being cheeky and watching the clouds go by. Don’t say it out loud too loudly, mate!
Explorer Tom Ives Plantation in Bradford has a footpath through it! I bet Ives was a keen walker. Follow the path and maybe you’ll find some good stories.
Explorer Tom Old milepost in Bradford is leaning over looking at its nails, completely ignoring all the traffic roaring past it like a lazy cat on a wall. Say hi to it.
Explorer Tom Old milestone in Bradford is wearing a nice coat of lichen, thinking it looks distinguished. Honestly, it needs a proper scrub down.
Explorer Tom Oxenhope in Bradford has a garden nearby, which is lovely. Gardens are where flowers grow and bees buzz. Go say hi to the bees, but don’t get stung unless you enjoy pain.
Explorer Tom Whinny Hill in Denholme is neighing at the wind like it’s a very confused horse. It’s probably just enjoying the view from up high. Take a photo of the sky while you’re there!
Explorer Tom Goff Well is right next to a farmhouse and bungalow. The farmer probably guards it like a dragon. Don't get too close without checking the fence first!
