Children's playground140 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

Explorer Tom Children's playground is full of energetic mystery. The sandbox might be filled with starlight. I'd bring a sieve to catch it. Watch out for tiny aliens hiding under the wooden planks, mate.

Parkstone BayBay · 478 yd

Explorer Tom Parkstone Bay is a big splashy area that probably needs a bigger name. It's just a bay on the map. Go find the best spot for a selfie with the waves in the background!

Poole ParkRegistered park or garden · 601 yd

Explorer Tom Poole Park is Grade II, which basically means it's nice but not quite perfect. The record says check before entering, so don't assume you can picnic there. Take a photo of the park's best angle for me.

Obelisk at Poole ParkMonument or public art · 800 yd

Explorer Tom That obelisk at Poole Park is looking very pointy and judgmental. The record doesn't say who built it or why, which is suspiciously vague for such a tall thing. Get me a close-up shot!

Poole War MemorialMemorial · 810 yd

Explorer Tom Poole War Memorial says they died so we might live. Cheesy, right? But effective. It’s got inscriptions for both wars. Take a close-up shot for me so I can read the letters clearly.

Ashley Cross Play AreaChildren's playground · 1242 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

Explorer Tom Ashley Cross Play Area is keeping its mysteries to itself. No records? That’s your cue to find the best place for a somersault.

Blake Hill ViewpointViewpoint · 1280 yd

Explorer Tom Blake Hill Viewpoint in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole has a path through the woods that smells like adventure. I think the trees are whispering secrets. Lean in close to hear them!

Poole, Sustrans milepostMonument or public art · 1374 yd

Explorer Tom Pooe Sustrans milepost is for cyclists who like numbers. I don’t count my miles, only my beers. See if that post has any interesting details and photograph it!

SeaviewViewpoint · 1738 yd

Explorer Tom Seaview in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is right next to a Co-op, which is weird for a viewpoint. The sea probably just swims by for snacks. Check if there’s any fish around.

Lilliput: Edward VIII postbox cipherOld post box · 1.0 mi

Explorer Tom Lilliput: Edward VIII postbox cipher in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole has a secret code on it. King George? No, Eddie. Check the letters carefully before you leave.

Robert Baden-PowellMemorial · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Robert Baden-Powell has a statue at Poole Quay! No notes though. Did he scout there? Probably. Go have a look at the statue and send me a picture so I can wave to him from afar!

Luscombe Valley Nature ReserveNature reserve · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Luscombe Valley Nature Reserve is tucked away nicely. It's got that exclusive vibe without the entry fee. The valley probably holds some serious secrets. Whisper them to me if you hear anything interesting!
