Explorer Tom Mid Gleniron gave up cheese for Lent but kept the bronze age stones because they were too heavy to move. It’s also a neolithic chambered cairn, which means it’s got two jobs and expects you to respect both of them. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.
Explorer Tom Camrie Fell is an enclosure with an unknown period, which basically means we’ve all been guessing our way through history around this particular hillside. I’m pretty sure a dance was held there once that went too far and ended with someone falling into a ditch. It’s got that rugged, unbothered look of a place that has seen it all and doesn’t care. Linger
Explorer Tom Camrie Burn is guarding a scandal it’s been hiding for centuries, probably involving a very poorly hidden love letter or a stolen pie. The building sits there looking innocent while the whole valley knows exactly what went down in the old days. You can feel the drama seeping through the walls. Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.
Explorer Tom Campbell's Croft in Dumfries and Galloway is a building that must be dead set on starting a feud with the next village over something daft like who had the better turnip. It’s an unassigned structure that looks like it’s holding a grudge against the very concept of history books. The whole vibe screams 'I know things,' but refuses to share them with anyone who asks nicely. Make up your own legend
Explorer Tom Carscreugh Castle has a curse that only affects people who don’t wave at it, which is half the population if you ask me. It’s standing there with its arms crossed, daring you to be rude without a proper greeting in return. The air smells like wet wool and ancient secrets, which is exactly what I’m after today. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car.
