Frog HillForest · 235 ydExplorer Tom Frog Hill in Breckland is basically a frog spa day. They're all sitting around soaking their toes in the mud. Take a photo for me if you see any particularly relaxed amphibians!
Devil’s Punchbowl, Stanford Training AreaVisitor information · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Devil’s Punchbowl at Stanford Training Area has a hole where the devil punched through. Watch out for artillery practice if you linger too long.
Wyrley's BeltWood · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Wyrley's Belt in Breckland sounds like it belongs to someone with very strong arms. Wyrley must have been a tough guy who liked his trees in order. Go check if he’s still around, but I doubt it!
Mickle HillScheduled monument · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Mickle Hill in Breckland is a big ol' mound that demands your attention. It stands tall over the landscape, acting like the boss of all the other hills nearby. Bow to its majesty.
Church of St LawrenceListed building · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Church of St Lawrence in Breckland is basically just some cool rubble with attitude. The caption says 'ruins', which is a polite way of saying it fell over and quit.
Monument to the former Sturston HallMonument or public art · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Monument to the former Sturston Hall in Breckland is mourning its lost glory like a drama queen. The hall is gone, but the monument remains to tell the tale. Snap a shot of its sorrow!
Church of All SaintsListed building · 2.3 miExplorer Tom All Saints again! This one’s in Stanford and has a lovely interior shot. It’s Grade I, so it’s seen it all. Don’t let the quiet fool you; it’s got stories to tell.
Croxton Village SignPublic artwork · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Croxton Village Sign in Breckland is completely unremarkable on paper. I suspect it’s secretly a portal to another dimension, but you need a cheese grater to open it.
Wretham Village SignPublic artwork · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Wretham Village Sign in Breckland has zero information about it, so I am betting it hides a map to buried treasure under the paint. Take a close-up for me if you spot any clues.
Public FootpathVisitor information · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Public Footpath in Breckland is on the National Cycle Network, which means bikes will zoom past you. Duck if one comes! Take a pic of your ducking pose so I can laugh at it later.
The Old Town TheatreMemorial · 4.9 miExplorer Tom The Old Town Theatre in Breckland only lasted until 1833 before closing its curtains for good. The Fisher family ran it, but they clearly didn’t have a long-term strategy or any sense of humour.
The Ancient HouseMemorial · 4.9 miExplorer Tom The Ancient House in Breckland was gifted by a prince in 1921. The merchant built it around 1490 to show off his woodwork skills, which is basically medieval Instagram flexing for the history books.
