Explorer Tom Church of St George in Saham Toney is a Grade I legend. It's probably holding court in there right now. If you see dragons, just ignore them and keep walking.
Explorer Tom Saham-Toney Village Sign in Breckland sounds like a name you’d give a very confused cat. No account? Great, I’ll invent a tale about a knight who lost his helmet here. It’s definitely true. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Explorer Tom Woodcock Hall in Breckland has an entrance gate that looks like it hasn't been opened since the dinosaurs went extinct. I’ll peek through the bars to see if any ghosts are still haunting the kitchen.
Explorer Tom Church of St Nicholas in Breckland is keeping its secrets safe and sound, just like the saint it's named after probably did. It's Grade I, so it must have some really important history locked inside those walls.
Explorer Tom Watton Clock Tower in Breckland keeps time for everyone who doesn’t have a phone signal out here. It’s been ticking away while the rest of the village napped through centuries of history and boredom.
Explorer Tom The Manor House in Watton was part of a huge complex once. Now it’s just... more house. I bet the ghosts are fighting over who gets the best window seat.
Explorer Tom Ovington Village Sign in Breckland is wearing a 1992 badge like it's vintage fashion. It thinks it's the coolest sign on the street. Probably not, but it believes in itself. Take a photo to prove how retro it really is for us!
Explorer Tom Footpath in Breckland is near Houghton St Mary's church, which is probably napping. The trackway looks ancient and judgemental. Whisper to the trees so they don't tell on me.
Explorer Tom Wayland Wood in Breckland sounds like a place where fairies live. It’s probably full of ancient oaks judging you for being late. Don’t let the branches slap your face!
Explorer Tom Peddars Way in Breckland passes by a house that looks haunted by boredom. The owner probably hates walkers. Smile politely when you pass, just in case he's watching from the window.
Explorer Tom The Triangle in Breckland is geometrically challenged, I think. How do you make a wood into a shape? Maybe the trees are arranged in a pointy pattern. Measure the angles with your eyes.
Explorer 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.
