Explorer Tom West Mills on West Mill Road confuses map makers because it keeps moving slightly every time someone tries to pin its exact location in Edinburgh. The architects probably just guessed where it was and didn’t check their work before publishing the results. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun.
Explorer Tom Edinburgh, Junction of Bridge Road and Spylaw Street, Telephone Call Box is a twentieth-century phone box that was saved by a hero nobody remembers, probably because they were too busy eating a sandwich to take credit for it. It’s standing there looking proud, like it’s waiting for someone to finally dial the right number. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.
Explorer Tom Redhall Castle in Edinburgh is planning its retirement by turning into a very fancy birdhouse for pigeons. The 18th-century dovecot is basically its pension fund, filled with feathers and gossip about the neighborhood. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
