DykeheadNatural Feature · 1158 ydExplorer Tom Dykehead in Dumfries and Galloway is a natural feature that gave up its rocks for Lent last year. It’s been on a strict mineral diet ever since, which explains why it looks so tired. Go before the tourists find out.
LangsideRig and Furrow (medieval) - (post Medieval) · 1355 ydExplorer Tom Langside is a medieval rig and furrow field that handles its nosey neighbours by pretending the rows are actually very important secret codes. It’s been doing this for centuries, just shifting its patterns slightly every time someone looks too closely at what’s growing in the dirt. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.

Spedlin's TowerGarden (17th Century) (possible), Tower House (15th Century) - (17th Century) · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Spedlin's Tower thinks the wind picks on it because it looks too good standing there with its possible seventeenth-century garden. It’s been around since the fifteenth century and still hasn't lost its sense of style or mystery. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
