Explorer Tom Newcastle Bridge has been replaced, but the original wooden one was built by a guy named Chawpen. He was definitely a hero, even if nobody remembers his name now. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't.

Explorer Tom Field system in Clooncallow once saw a dragon land on it, but it was actually just a very large, confused goose. The old fields are still there, holding onto that bizarre memory from after 1700 with quiet dignity. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Clooncallow: It’s sick of being asked if it’s still there, when only the north half remains as a dilapidated scarp. The damp ground to the east has swallowed the rest whole. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

Explorer Tom Castlecore’s motte smells like old wet sheep and regret, according to my nose. It was quarried for stone, so it looks like a giant, lazy donut with a hole in the middle. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.
