Gypsy PointSubterranean Structure · 1295 yd

Explorer Tom Little Balmae is a Fodder Store that is constantly being picked on by the wind because it’s too small to complain effectively. It’s like the quiet cousin at the party who keeps getting their drink spilled on them but just smiles politely and moves away. The wind thinks it’s funny to rattle its doors, but Little Balmae knows it’s just jealous of the bigger fields. Bring curiosity, leave with a best

BalmaeCup and Ring Marked Rock (prehistoric) · 1696 yd

Explorer Tom Balmae is another one of those prehistoric rocks in Dumfries and Galloway that nearly got famous for being exactly what it is: a rock with some dots on it. It’s the kind of place that almost made the news, but then it decided to stay low-key and let other stones hog the spotlight. It’s a proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think, so settle in and ponder the mysteries

Torrs CaveCave · 1.5 miDunrod MillMill · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Dunrod Mill makes a sound at night that is definitely not wind, and I am not crazy about it either. It goes *thump-thump* like a giant heartbeat, or maybe just the ghost of a very grumpy miller still working overtime. I’d bet good money it’s grinding flour for nobody. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place.

Camp HillPlantation Bank, Quarry(s) · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Camp Hill is having a massive drama with the nearest tree over who gets to be the centre of attention. One side is a plantation bank, the other a quarry, and neither will budge for the other. It’s like watching two toddlers fight over a toy that isn't even there. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want?

Explorer Tom Balmangan Tower was saved by a hero nobody remembers because he got too drunk on the celebratory ale and forgot his own name before dawn. He probably still lives in the attic judging by the amount of old coins found in the cellar recently. Bring sandwiches, the gulls will thank you.
