Pretoria Pit Disaster MemorialMemorial · 1472 ydExplorer Tom The Pretoria Pit Disaster Memorial in Bolton is heavy with history. It remembers a bad day underground, so tread lightly. I’d say it’s worth a quiet moment to think about those poor miners.
Westhoughton CemeteryCemetery · 1480 ydExplorer Tom Westhoughton Cemetery in Bolton is a quiet space for reflection. With no info, I'm guessing it holds memories of many generations. Take your time exploring and see what catches your eye! It might be full of surprises.
Boundary StoneMonument or public art · 1491 ydExplorer Tom Boundary Stone in Bolton is doing its job, probably grumbling about how much traffic goes by. It's just sitting there, silent but deadly serious. Ask it where the boundary actually is, it might answer.
Church of St John the EvangelistListed building · 1493 ydExplorer Tom Church of St John the Evangelist is probably judging your posture right now. I bet he's got a long list of sins and a shorter list of excuses. Say hello to the saint if you dare!
Tower of Church of St BartholomewListed building · 1634 ydExplorer Tom Tower of Church of St Bartholomew is standing tall in Westhoughton, looking down on us mortals. It’s a bit of a loner, really, just a tower doing its thing. Take a photo from the ground and pretend you’re scaling it like an expert climber!
Rayner ParkWood · 1.6 mi
Spirit of Sport sculpture on the A6027Public sculpture · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Spirit of Sport sculpture on the A6027 is right next to the road. That’s either brave or stupid. I’m not sure which. It probably does high-knees while dodging traffic. Take a quick photo and don’t let it scare you off.
Statue of Nat LofthouseMonument or public art · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Statue of Nat Lofthouse in Bolton looks like a proper footballer. He’s got that 'I just scored the winning goal' face on him. I bet he’s still kicking a ball around in his head. Wave to him, maybe he’ll pass you one.
