Explorer Tom Church of All Saints in Breckland is trying to be everyone's friend, which is why it's named after all of them. It's Grade I, so it must have quite the social life among the local religious community.
Explorer Tom Manor Farmhouse in Breckland looks like a regular old farm, but it's listed! That's cheeky. The chickens are definitely running the show now, not the farmers.
Explorer Tom Stebbing's Grove in Breckland is named after someone important, I'm sure. Probably a guy who loved trees more than his own children. He'd be proud to see you out here today.
Explorer Tom Bradenham Village Sign in Breckland proudly displays 'EIIR 1953'. That’s Edward the Eighthth, or maybe a typo for Elizabeth? Either way, that king has been dead for ages.
Explorer Tom High Grove in Breckland sounds like the place where the cool kids hang out. It's near Bradenham, so maybe there are fairies guarding the best swings. Wave at them for me!
Explorer Tom Cranworth War Memorial has an angel on top. She looks tired, probably from all that hovering. If she winks at you, tell her I said hi from the ground.
Explorer Tom Cranworth Village Sign in Breckland has no info, so I’m guessing it’s actually a very tall, wooden duck that’s pretending to be a signpost for the locals.
Explorer Tom Old Milestone in Breckland is doing its best impression of a modern sculpture. It’s very artsy, or just lazy. I’d bet it’s actually a very old boot. Take a look!
Explorer Tom St Withburga's Well & St Nicholas Church, Dereham, Norfolk is a holy well next to a church, which means plenty of people have dipped their fingers in for luck. I’ll just stand here and pretend my headache is magically gone already.
Explorer Tom The Assembly Rooms in Breckland was built in 1756 on the spot where the old prison used to be. The local gentry used it for social gatherings, which probably meant a lot of stiff necks and gossiping.
Explorer Tom Footpath in Breckland is near Houghton St Mary's church, which is probably napping. The trackway looks ancient and judgemental. Whisper to the trees so they don't tell on me.
Explorer Tom Peddars Way in Breckland crosses the River Wissey, which is definitely not a river. It's a puddle with delusions of grandeur! Jump across it for luck, or at least for a good photo.
