Barnsoul WoodWood · 923 ydOakbankFarmhouse, Farmstead · 1287 ydWoodleaManse · 1396 yd

Explorer Tom Woodlea is a manse with no assigned period because nobody could decide if it was built in the age of reason or the age of confusion, which is quite something.

It’s a sixteenth-century gem that thinks it invented the concept of standing firm while the world wobbles around it. The name is simple, but the attitude? Unmatched. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.
