Explorer Tom Glenmidge is like that awkward uncle at a wedding who refuses to sit down and keeps checking his watch while the speeches drag on forever.

Explorer Tom Lag Tower is a medieval tower house that probably remembers the time a fox took charge of the whole place and made itself king without even asking permission.

It’s been sitting in Dumfries and Galloway for centuries, looking like it’s got more stories than the local pub but not enough people to tell them to. The whole place feels like it’s waiting for someone
