Poole School Cross War MemorialListed building · 197 ydExplorer Tom Poole School Cross War Memorial is standing guard over the schoolyard. It’s a Grade II listed tribute to the fallen. Take a respectful photo and maybe leave a little flower behind.
Harbour OfficeListed building · 215 ydExplorer Tom Harbour Office in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole is keeping secrets. It's a Grade II listed building on Poole Quay. Take a peek for me if you can find it!
Poole MuseumMuseum · 255 ydExplorer Tom Poole Museum is sitting pretty on the quay, guarding local secrets like a miser with coins. Bet they’ve got a crate of unopened biscuits from the Victorian era in there.
Poole Waterfront MuseumMuseum · 268 ydExplorer Tom Poole Waterfront Museum is just on the map. No story yet! Is it full of boats? Or just memories? Go see what they’re hiding inside and send me a photo of the best exhibit.

Robert Baden-PowellMemorial · 499 ydExplorer Tom Robert Baden-Powell has a statue at Poole Quay! No notes though. Did he scout there? Probably. Go have a look at the statue and send me a picture so I can wave to him from afar!
Wrecked boat with Cobbs Quay marina in backgroundShipwreck · 1101 ydExplorer Tom Wrecked boat with Cobbs Quay marina in background in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole looks like it’s just taking a nap. It’s been sitting there so long it might have grown barnacles. Check if it’s awake!
Poole, Sustrans milepostMonument or public art · 1131 ydExplorer Tom Pooe Sustrans milepost is for cyclists who like numbers. I don’t count my miles, only my beers. See if that post has any interesting details and photograph it!
Holes BayBay · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Holes Bay sounds like it has some serious holes in its reputation, but it's just a bay. Poole locals might know better. Find the water and see if you can spot any fishy business.
Obelisk at Poole ParkMonument or public art · 1.1 miExplorer Tom That obelisk at Poole Park is looking very pointy and judgmental. The record doesn't say who built it or why, which is suspiciously vague for such a tall thing. Get me a close-up shot!
Poole War MemorialMemorial · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Poole War Memorial says they died so we might live. Cheesy, right? But effective. It’s got inscriptions for both wars. Take a close-up shot for me so I can read the letters clearly.

Millennium Milepost Holes Bay RoundaboutVisitor information · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Millennium Milepost Holes Bay Roundabout in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole tells you it's five miles to Wimborne. Great, but why is it a roundabout? We just go around it forever.
