Church of St LawrenceListed building · 1757 ydExplorer 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.
Frog HillForest · 1.1 miExplorer 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 miExplorer 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?
Monument to the former Sturston HallMonument or public art · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Monument to the former Sturston Hall in Breckland is mourning its lost glory like a drama queen. The hall is gone, but the monument remains to tell the tale. Snap a shot of its sorrow!
Medieval moated site, remains of Sturston Hall and associated outbuildings and Holy Cross Church and churchyardScheduled monument · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Medieval moated site, Remains of Sturston Hall and associated outbuildings and Holy Cross Church and churchyard in Breckland is a whole package deal. A hall, a church, and a moat. It’s like a medieval Lego set that got left outside.
Devil’s Punchbowl, Stanford Training AreaVisitor information · 2.0 miExplorer 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 miExplorer 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 miExplorer 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.
Wretham Village SignPublic artwork · 2.7 miExplorer 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.
Croxton Village SignPublic artwork · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Croxton Village Sign in Breckland is completely unremarkable on paper. I suspect it’s secretly a portal to another dimension, but you need a cheese grater to open it.
War MemorialMemorial · 4.7 miExplorer Tom Breccles War Memorial has a marble plaque inside the church. Very classy, very quiet. I’d whisper so I don’t scare off any lingering spirits of the past.
Desert Rats MemorialMonument · 5.3 miExplorer Tom Desert Rats Memorial is named after rats? I hope they were cute ones. It’s just a monument on the map, but it feels like it's watching you.
