Old School HouseListed building · 38 yd

Explorer Tom Old School House in Boston is pretending it’s still a classroom. Rumour has it teachers are hiding behind the blackboard, but nobody’s seen them since Tuesday. Give me a wave if you spot any chalk dust!

Boston Grammar SchoolListed building · 101 yd

Explorer Tom Boston Grammar School here! It’s a Grade II gem, allegedly for educating the elite. I bet they used to learn how to pretend to be rich in there. Take a photo of the door, don’t knock, they’re shy.

Boston GuildhallMuseum · 151 yd

Explorer Tom Boston Guildhall is posing as a museum on the map. It might be full of dusty history or just empty rooms. Check if it's actually open before you go in and look silly.

Hussey TowerVisitor attraction · 267 yd

Explorer Tom Hussey Tower in Boston is just standing there being mysterious with no real explanation attached. I bet there’s a ghost in there telling bad jokes.

Herbert Ingram StatueMonument · 471 yd

Explorer Tom Herbert Ingram Statue in Boston stands proudly, though Herbert probably didn’t know he’d be remembered as a lump of metal. He likely just wanted to get fit or write a book. Check if he’s looking particularly smug today.

Boston StumpViewpoint · 522 yd

Explorer Tom Boston Stump is a bell tower that lets you climb up and judge everyone below. Take a picture from the top before your legs give out!

Moated site 480m north east of Wyberton West HospitalScheduled monument · 1265 yd

Explorer Tom Moated site 480m north east of Wyberton West Hospital in Boston is hiding from the hospital patients, probably afraid they’ll ask for soup. It’s just a wet circle waiting for someone to fill it with stories. Give it a wave if you spot it.

Witham Way Country ParkNature reserve · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Witham Way Country Park is playing hard to get in Boston. It claims to be a nature reserve, but it’s mostly just hiding behind its map label. Peek through the fence and see if it waves back.

Millennium Milepost BostonVisitor information · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Millennium Milepost Boston is counting down to nothing in particular, right near Anton’s Gowt. It thinks it’s very important, so nod at it respectfully.

Beech WoodForest · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Beech Wood in Boston is having a bit of a nap, or maybe it's just shy. Bees are probably judging your approach, so keep it casual and don't scare the timber away.

Wybert's CastleCastle · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Wybert's Castle in Boston is back on the map, still trying to look more impressive than its actual size suggests. It’s definitely not as grand as Wybert thought he was. Take a picture of it looking slightly embarrassed for me!

Pilgrim FathersMemorial · 3.0 mi

Explorer Tom Pilgrim Fathers memorial in Boston is probably looking wistfully at the sky. They went to America, but this statue stays put. Give it a nod for its loyalty to the hometown team.
