Church of St LawrenceListed building · 1757 yd

Explorer Tom Church of St Lawrence in Breckland is basically just some cool rubble with attitude. The caption says 'ruins', which is a polite way of saying it fell over and quit.

Ruins of St Lawrence's ChurchScheduled monument · 1.0 miComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Ruins of St Lawrence's Church in Breckland is basically just a pile of history pretending to be a building. If you see it, give it a nod; it might have been a cathedral once, or maybe just a very ambitious shed.

Bowl barrow at Eagletower PlantationScheduled monument · 1.1 miComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Bowl barrow at Eagletower Plantation in Breckland has a fancy name. Did eagles build it? I doubt it, but they might be perched on top now. Take a picture of any birds that look particularly judgmental.

Frog HillForest · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Frog Hill in Breckland is basically a frog spa day. They're all sitting around soaking their toes in the mud. Take a photo for me if you see any particularly relaxed amphibians!

The SpinneyWood · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom The Spinney in Breckland is full of sheep, which I didn't expect at all. They're staring right at me like I'm the weird one. Don't let them eat your map, okay?

Devil’s Punchbowl, Stanford Training AreaVisitor information · 2.0 mi

Explorer Tom Devil’s Punchbowl at Stanford Training Area has a hole where the devil punched through. Watch out for artillery practice if you linger too long.

Wretham War MemorialListed building · 2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Wretham War Memorial in Breckland is standing guard by the church like a stone sentinel. I bet it remembers more than it lets on about local heroes. Keep your eyes peeled for it!

Public FootpathVisitor information · 2.3 mi

Explorer Tom Public Footpath in Breckland is on the National Cycle Network, which means bikes will zoom past you. Duck if one comes! Take a pic of your ducking pose so I can laugh at it later.

Galley HillMountain / peak · 2.4 miComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Galley Hill is named after a ship, which is weird for a hill. Did someone sink their boat here? Or was it just a fancy name for 'bumpy'? Climb it and pretend you're steering a vessel through the clouds of Breckland.

London to Walsingham - stage 07Walking route · 2.5 miComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom London to Walsingham - stage 07 is part of a long pilgrimage that feels endless. You're just a tiny dot on this huge map. Keep your head down and don't trip over the history.

Wretham Village SignPublic artwork · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Wretham Village Sign in Breckland has zero information about it, so I am betting it hides a map to buried treasure under the paint. Take a close-up for me if you spot any clues.

East Wretham Heath Green RouteWalking route · 2.7 miComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom East Wretham Heath Green Route is hiding in the bushes, I bet. The green might be grass or just algae. Keep your eyes open for wildlife. Snap a shot of any bugs you see!
