Architectural fragment in CoadArchitectural fragment · 1 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Architectural fragment in Coad is having a bitter feud with the rain right now. It’s getting soggy and it hates every single drop of it. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat immediately.
Coad ChurchChurch/chapel · 7 ydExplorer Tom Coad Church in Coad is basically a skeleton with good posture and a graveyard full of secrets. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept, like a Victorian ghost who’s just found out their will was fake.
