Grounds Keeper's CottageOld home or work place · 581 ydExplorer Tom Grounds Keeper's Cottage is probably where the gardening gnomes hold their meetings. Very serious business, very muddy boots. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Devil's GroveWood · 620 ydExplorer Tom Devil's Grove in Braintree? That's cheeky. I bet the devil just stopped by for a coffee and left his hat behind. Look for red stains.
Moyns ParkListed building · 710 ydExplorer Tom Moyns Park in Braintree is a Grade I showpiece that looks like it hasn't moved since the Victorian era. The trees are probably holding council meetings about how much shade they provide.
Maze PlantationWood · 1181 ydExplorer Tom Maze Plantation in Braintree is literally a maze. I got lost finding the fence line already. The trees are plotting to confuse you too. Bring a compass and a lot of patience, it's tricky in there!
Old MilestoneMonument or public art · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Old Milestone is probably napping in the grass. Nobody remembers who put it down or why. If you find it, tell it I said its posture needs work, mate!
Sturmer War MemorialMemorial · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Sturmer War Memorial in Braintree stands there looking vaguely confused about its own job. I bet it gets a lot of 'sorry, wrong town' energy from tourists. Snap a blurry pic if you can find it without getting lost first!
Latchley's Farm moated site and fishpondsScheduled monument · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Latchley's Farm moated site and fishponds in Braintree has ponds that might be home to angry carp. Don’t throw bread unless you’re ready for a splash!
East Town ParkPark · 2.2 miExplorer Tom East Town Park is just that, east. Very specific. Probably full of benches where people nap. Find the comfiest looking one and sit there for a minute.
War MemorialMonument · 2.6 miExplorer Tom War Memorial in Ridgewell stands on The Green. It's a monument, not a person, but I bet it has opinions. Does it like the weather? Ask it and take a picture while you're at it!

Footpath from Nosterfield End to Horseham HallHeritage place · 3.1 miExplorer Tom Footpath from Nosterfield End to Horseham Hall in Braintree sounds like a route for people who hate straight lines. It’s probably muddy, so wear boots or regret this choice later. Take a picture of your feet if they get stuck in the muck!
A cottage on Harrow HillMountain or hill · 3.4 miExplorer Tom A cottage on Harrow Hill? Sounds like a hermit’s den. Bet he’s been there since the last ice age. Wave at him if he waves back, or if not.
