Explorer Tom Middlebie Hill is where Roman soldiers set up camp, mostly to complain about the wind and the damp. A goat once ruled this place with an iron hoof, and honestly, it was more effective than most emperors. The precision of the map is annoyingly good for a hill that doesn’t care. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

Explorer Tom Middlebie’s Roman inscribed stone is giving up on Lent by refusing to be found within a kilometre, which is quite the stretch for a chunk of history. It’s got a caption that just says 'Middlebie,' like that explains everything, but really it’s just sitting there judging your Latin and wondering why you’re still checking your phone instead of appreciating the ancient handiwork.

Explorer Tom Hoddom Castle has a secret talent for looking like it’s about to sneeze a century out of its chimney. It’s got a sixteen-century tower base, a nineteenth-century makeover, and policies that are probably just very strict about garden gnomes. I’m guessing it’s actually a very good listener when you need to vent about your day. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.
