Explorer Tom Gillenbie Hope in Dumfries and Galloway is playing hard to get, hiding its medieval rig and furrow secrets behind a very unhelpful lack of public access. Imagine it filing a complaint with the council about all the foot traffic it never actually asked for. It’s probably just sitting there, judging your boots from a distance of ten metres or less. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you can
Explorer Tom Banks in Dumfries and Galloway has a building and an enclosure that are feuding with the next village over who stole their best sheep. It’s all very dramatic for a place that’s basically just some ruins and a fence line, but you’d think it was a soap opera if you weren't paying attention. The buildings look like they’re judging your life choices as you walk by. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent
Explorer Tom Lunelly Tower had a feud with the next village over who owned the best pie recipe. It’s been grumbling about it since the medieval days. This tower house is still holding onto that grudge. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
Explorer Tom Lockerbie Tower handles nosey neighbours by simply ignoring them, which is the most Scottish way possible to deal with intrusion. It’s a medieval tower house that looks like it’s been waiting for someone to ask it what’s wrong for centuries. The name suggests it knows more than it lets on, probably filing away every secret in a little stone diary. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday
