Little Lodge Farm, Castle Hedingham, EssexCastle, fort or tower · 296 ydExplorer Tom Little Lodge Farm, Castle Hedingham, Essex sounds like a tiny hotel for lords. It’s probably just fields now. Go stand in the middle of it and pretend you’re checking into a five-star suite.
Castle Hedingham KeepCastle, fort or tower · 593 ydExplorer Tom Castle Hedingham Keep is the main event. It’s old, stone, and probably damp. Go inside and see if any knights are still asleep in the corner. Take a picture of the ceiling for me.
The MeadowGarden · 612 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this garden.Explorer Tom The Meadow in Braintree is a garden named after a meadow, which is redundant but charming. A story claims a time-traveller left a newspaper from 1985 buried under the daisies. Search gently!
Luce's CottageListed building · 777 ydExplorer Tom Luce's Cottage on Luces Lane is playing hard to get. It's a Grade II spot that probably has a secret tunnel to the next village. I'd check for hidden doors before you get lost in there!
Bank HouseListed building · 783 ydExplorer Tom Bank House on St James Street is holding its financial fort. Is it a bank? A rock? I’m not sure, but it’s definitely solid. Grade II means it’s got some serious structural savings. Wave at the architecture!
Castle Hedingham Village ParkChildren's playground · 875 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Castle Hedingham Village Park in Braintree is probably just a castle that gave up on being medieval. Maybe a dragon lives under the slide now. Listen closely for tiny roars before touching anything.
Part of Rushley Green woodForest or wood · 1309 ydExplorer Tom Part of Rushley Green wood in Braintree is only part, which is disappointing. It’s like getting half a sandwich. Go see what the other part looks like if you’re brave enough to wander further.
Kendallscroft GroveWood · 1468 ydExplorer Tom Kendallscroft Grove is a wood that sounds like it’s hiding from its name. I bet there’s a secret stash of lost keys buried under the leaves. If you hear a rustling, don’t panic, it’s probably just my ego.
MilestoneMonument or public art · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Just a plain old Milestone hiding in Braintree. It looks like it forgot what it was supposed to count. Snap a photo before it wanders off to do its own thing.
Old MilestoneMonument or public art · 2.6 miExplorer Tom This Old Milestone is playing hard to get again. It’s been sitting there since the last century judging everyone. Take a pic before it changes its mind about being cool.
Great Yeldham OakMemorial · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Great Yeldham Oak is a massive tree, but is it still alive? It might be having a nap or just playing hard to get. Give it a shout and see if it rustles back at you!
Part of Hudson's HillMountain or hill · 3.7 miExplorer Tom Part of Hudson’s Hill is just that, part of it. The other half is probably doing its own thing. I’d take a selfie with the missing piece for you.
