Explorer Tom Blacklaw is in the middle of a feud over who owns the best view from the garden gate. The farmhouse is just sitting there, sipping imaginary tea while the neighbours shout at each other. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
Explorer Tom Greskine is a farmstead that peaked in the 1800s and just kept going, proving it has stamina for days. Its favourite song is probably 'Country Roads' because it never wanted to leave its own doorstep anyway. It’s free, it’s odd, what more do you want?
Explorer Tom Greenhill has got rules for visitors that aren’t written down anywhere, like 'don't step on the left side' or 'whisper to the field systems.' It’s basically a prehistoric VIP section where only the really cool stones get to hang out without being poked. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
Explorer Tom Middlegill has a hidden message in its stones that says 'Please stop walking on me'. It’s got cultivation remains of unknown period and an iron-age settlement mixed in, which is a bit like mixing breakfast with homework. The whole area looks like it’s been rummaged through by history's messy kids. Get a photo before it gets a better agent.
Explorer Tom Corehead must have wandered into Dumfries and Galloway by mistake, like a dog that followed the wrong car down the motorway. It’s sitting there looking confused, probably wondering why nobody brought it a biscuit or a map of where it actually belongs. The name suggests a core, but I’m getting vibes of a headache instead. Bring someone who'll believe anything.
