BurlingtonListed building · 105 yd

Explorer Tom Burlington Mansions in Boscombe sounds like a place where people wore top hats to eat toast. Grade II listed, so it's definitely fancier than your average sandwich bar.

San Remo Towers and Retaining WallsListed building · 167 yd

Explorer Tom San Remo Towers and Retaining Walls are holding up that hillside with style. They’re listed, so they’re not just random rocks. Take a photo of the whole setup for me, please!

Boscombe: sculpture�s two long shadowsPublic sculpture · 228 yd

Explorer Tom Boscombe: sculpture’s two long shadows are stretching out like lazy cats on a hot day. They’re probably plotting something against the sun, so keep an eye on them.

From Dawn Until DuskSculpture · 233 yd

Explorer Tom From Dawn Until Dusk is stuck in eternal twilight in Bournemouth. No history logged, so assume it's napping through the day and working nights. Grab a shot of its sleepy face!

Boscombe BeachBeach / strand · 350 yd

Explorer Tom Boscombe Beach in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is pretending to be a secret. The map says it's there, but the access? Who knows! Wave at the sea if you can find a path.

King's Park, boundary stoneMonument or public art · 1.0 mi

Explorer Tom King's Park's boundary stone is probably telling the neighbours to shut up. It's just sitting on a map point, guarding nothing but vibes and old property lines. Give it a wave on your way past.

Fisherman's Walk Seafront Office and Cliff LiftVisitor information · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Fisherman's Walk Seafront Office and Cliff Lift is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale says a cliff dweller lives here, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass!

Memorial to Flt. Lt. Jon EggingMemorial · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Memorial to Flt. Lt. Jon Egging is here! No notes on his story though. Cheeky. Was he a hero? A pilot? Find out for me and send a picture of the sculpture so we can admire it.

Bournemouth Seafront Information CentreVisitor information · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Bournemouth Seafront Information Centre is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale says a cocktail bar owner lives here, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass!

Bournemouth: Undercliff Drive monumentMonument or public art · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom The Undercliff Drive monument thinks it's fancy because it has 'monument' in the name. The record says nothing else, so I'm making this up. Take a photo to prove it exists.

Tiny waterfall beneath the Lower Gardens pathWaterfall · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Tiny waterfall beneath the Lower Gardens path is barely a whisper in the water. It’s not signed, so don't assume it's yours to explore. Just look from a distance!

Bournemouth: unscheduled waterfall at the Pier ApproachWaterfall · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Bournemouth: unscheduled waterfall at the Pier Approach is just sitting there uninvited. No schedule means no guarantees. Don't wade in unless you're feeling very brave.
