• White plaque № 10911 — County Antrim, Ireland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom White plaque № 10911 marks the site of the Mother Church of Belfast Methodism, which got integrated into a bank building in 1999 because apparently God needed a new office suite with better lighting. The original pillars are now part of the Ulster Bank Head Office, so your savings are literally resting on classical architecture designed by Isaac Farrell. Hum something

• Whiteford House plaque — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Whiteford House plaque in Edinburgh hides a message in its stones that says 'please don't knock, I'm napping' or something equally rude.

Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.

• Whitford Kane — County Antrim, Ireland Birthplace Explorer Tom Whitford Kane (Birthplace) in County Antrim is where an actor came from, which means he probably practised his dramatic deaths on the local dandelions.

• Wilfred Owen bronze plaque — City of Edinburgh, Scotland Commemorative plaque Explorer Tom Wilfred Owen bronze plaque in Edinburgh is basically a feud between two families over who gets to claim the view from this corner. The poet taught here for one month, which is not exactly a career highlight, but we’re making it sound like a residency. It’s got that serious vibe that makes you want to check your own poetry. Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.
