Robgill Tower, Well

Explorer Tom Merkland Cross in Dumfries and Galloway has hidden messages in its stones if you squint really hard. Probably just moss, but hey, mystery sells the story. Ring your granny and tell her where you are.

Explorer Tom Brownknowe is a Platform and possible Smithy in Dumfries and Galloway with an imaginary twin across the sea. I bet that twin is jealous because Brownknowe has better scenery and a more interesting backstory, even if it’s mostly made up. They probably argue about who has the hotter forge every single day at dusk. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.

Explorer Tom Kirtlebridge Viaduct in Dumfries and Galloway is a big stone bridge that probably thinks it’s much more important than it actually is, maybe even royalty if you squint really hard. It definitely remembers the day it was nearly sold off to some farmer who just wanted a fancy fence for his horses. I bet it still pretends to be busy carrying trains when it’s really just standing there doing nothing.

Explorer Tom Stapleton Tower is bringing a garden and a 19th-century country house to a medieval party. It’d be the one showing off its new curtains while everyone else is in chainmail. A bit of a posh mix for a tower house. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
