Explorer Tom Cloggers Row in Bradford is where people used to make shoes for walking everywhere. The date stone looks old enough to vote, so maybe it's still deciding if it wants us there.
Explorer Tom Kipping Independent Chapel is sitting there all quiet and religious, Grade II listed but no entry for us heathens. Probably praying we don’t break in. Take a photo of the Kipping Chapel sign and keep your distance.
Explorer Tom Thornton Cricket Club in Bradford looks like a place where time stands still, or maybe just the score does. I bet they’ve been playing the same over since 1985. Peek in to see if anyone is asleep.
Explorer Tom Thornton Cemetery in Bradford has no story, so I'll write one: the ghosts are shy. No records means you're on your own to find the fun parts. Snap a pic for me!
Explorer Tom Old Milestone, A644, North of Raggalds Inn is probably telling travellers it knows the shortcut to somewhere important, which is definitely not here. Listen closely.
Explorer Tom Chellow Dene Woods in Bradford has steps that seem to lead nowhere useful. They might be shortcuts, or they might just be confusing. Take them and see where you end up, then update me!
Explorer Tom Greenwood Park in Bradford is hiding its best tree from me again! No notes, no history, just vibes and possibly some very opinionated squirrels. If you find a particularly smug oak, take its picture for me.
Explorer Tom Clayton Cemetery feels like it's judging your outfit choice from 1850. Keep your head down, walk quickly, and maybe tip your hat to the old timers on the way past.
Explorer Tom Milestone - Scarlet Heights is marking distance up on a hill named after blood. Very dramatic naming choice. Did anyone turn red running up there? Take a picture!
Explorer Tom Remains of grotto? cave or cavern in Bradford is just... remains. The question mark suggests even the map maker wasn’t sure if it was real or a collective hallucination caused by too much sun.
Explorer Tom Norr Hill is playing hide-and-seek with me on Lee Lane. A peak in Bradford that refuses to be found, it’s probably hiding behind a cloud again. Take a picture if you spot its top!
