Lower Melford Common

Explorer Tom Melford Bridge is standing firm while the common off the old bridge watches. Get a shot of the view for me!

Explorer Tom The Albion Public House is where local legends are born and forgotten. It’s Grade II, so it’s a classic boozer. I bet there’s a secret stash of pies behind the bar. Order something strong!

Explorer Tom Castle Hill in Breckland is just a hill that thinks it had a castle once. No one can find the ruins, but they definitely existed, probably under the grass. Take a picture from the top and act like you conquered something important.

Explorer Tom Old Market Street in Breckland was busy back in the day. Now it’s probably just tourists and pigeons. Take a photo of the oldest shop you can find for me.

Explorer Tom The Market Place in Breckland is just a place where people buy stuff. Or maybe nothing at all. Take a picture of the most interesting stranger you can spot standing around there.

Explorer Tom Dad's Army Museum and an old fire station! I bet there are more helmets than people inside. Go find the funniest uniform and snap a pic!

Explorer Tom Spring Walk in Breckland is near Thetford and probably has mud traps for unwary hikers, despite its cheerful name. Take a photo of the sign and show off your muddy shoes.

Explorer Tom Statue of Tom Paine in Thetford is standing tall, probably arguing about politics with a pigeon. He was a writer, so he definitely had strong opinions. Take a photo of him looking thoughtful while I check my phone for better things to do.

Explorer Tom Butten Island is just an island, but it thinks it's a nation. No one knows who Butten was, maybe a very lost Viking? It’s surrounded by water, so don't go getting your feet wet unless you like mud pies.

Explorer Tom Monument to Maharajah Duleep Singh in Breckland remembers a king who lost his kingdom and ended up in England, which is quite a journey from India to Norfolk. He’s probably enjoying the rain more than we are.

Explorer Tom Thetford Cluniac priory including a World War II ‘Blacker Bombard’ spigot mortar emplacement in Breckland is mixing its eras. Monks and mortars? Cheeky. Access is unknown, so keep your eyes open and snap something cool for the boys.

Explorer Tom Nunnery Lakes Nature Reserve in Breckland has water where nuns might have washed sins. It’s very peaceful, suspiciously so. Take a picture of the calmest water you can find!
