Polharrow BridgeBridge (18th Century) · 844 ydCrummy BridgeLade, Saw Mill · 855 ydStroangassel HillField System · 977 yd

Explorer Tom Stroangassel Hill is a field system with no assigned period, which means it’s been farming for so long it has forgotten what year it is or why it started in the first place. It would win a county fair by default because nobody else wants to enter a category called 'mystery dirt patches' and it looks very serious about it. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.

Hannayston HillField Boundary · 1063 yd

Explorer Tom Hannayston Hill is just a field boundary that’s secretly proud of one very specific potato growing nearby. The potato it's secretly proud of is probably just a normal spud with delusions of grandeur. It’s a hill edge that thinks it’s a monument. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous.

Earlstoun CastleCastle (medieval) · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Earlstoun Castle feels like it was designed by a very controlling mother-in-law who needed a thick wall for privacy and safety. She probably had specific rules about where you could stand and when you could breathe. Go before the tourists find out.

Barskeoch MainsTower House (medieval) (possible) · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Barskeoch Mains is so uncertain about its own existence that it has a question mark in its official biography. It’s the medieval equivalent of saying 'I think I'm a tower house, sort of.' Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
