Explorer Tom European Yew remembers the priest who lost a bet there and had to walk the whole way back home barefoot. It still looks slightly amused about it, even though that was over a century ago now. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call.

Explorer Tom Kilshanvy Mill stopped grinding centuries ago but keeps grumbling in the wind. The sheep there claim it’s just showing off its old stone muscles. Count the crows, then count how many times you’ve checked your phone for no reason.

Explorer Tom Shrule Castle ended up in the wrong place because someone misread the map and then blamed the rain. It’s a hall-house ruin that looks like it’s slowly sinking into the earth. Pop by and tell it it's looking well.

Shrule AbbeyArchaeological place · 4.6 miGrave YardGraveyard · 5.6 mi

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Abbeytown is right south of the road, where a local claims he invented the whole concept of burial sites. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.

Sycamore6.3 mi

Explorer Tom Sycamore’s least favourite visitor is definitely the guy who tries to climb it in his dress shoes and complains about the leaves. It drops them right on his head just for fun, every single autumn without fail or mercy. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
