12, London RoadListed building · 171 yd

Explorer Tom 12, London Road in Boston is just another number on the street, but I bet it’s got a story about a famous person who once knocked on its door. Find out if anyone famous ever lived there or just passed by for tea!

The Ship InnListed building · 241 yd

Explorer Tom The Ship Inn in Boston is anchored right there on land, probably waiting for the tide to come back so it can finally sail away. Ask the barman if he’s seen any actual ships docked outside recently!

Moated site 480m north east of Wyberton West HospitalScheduled monument · 671 yd

Explorer Tom Moated site 480m north east of Wyberton West Hospital in Boston is hiding from the hospital patients, probably afraid they’ll ask for soup. It’s just a wet circle waiting for someone to fill it with stories. Give it a wave if you spot it.

Hussey TowerVisitor attraction · 746 yd

Explorer Tom Hussey Tower in Boston is just standing there being mysterious with no real explanation attached. I bet there’s a ghost in there telling bad jokes.

Boston GuildhallMuseum · 900 yd

Explorer Tom Boston Guildhall is posing as a museum on the map. It might be full of dusty history or just empty rooms. Check if it's actually open before you go in and look silly.

Herbert Ingram StatueMonument · 1189 yd

Explorer Tom Herbert Ingram Statue in Boston stands proudly, though Herbert probably didn’t know he’d be remembered as a lump of metal. He likely just wanted to get fit or write a book. Check if he’s looking particularly smug today.

Boston StumpViewpoint · 1202 yd

Explorer Tom Boston Stump is a bell tower that lets you climb up and judge everyone below. Take a picture from the top before your legs give out!

Wybert's CastleCastle · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Wybert's Castle in Boston is back on the map, still trying to look more impressive than its actual size suggests. It’s definitely not as grand as Wybert thought he was. Take a picture of it looking slightly embarrassed for me!

Witham Way Country ParkNature reserve · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Witham Way Country Park is playing hard to get in Boston. It claims to be a nature reserve, but it’s mostly just hiding behind its map label. Peek through the fence and see if it waves back.

Westgate WoodForest · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Westgate Wood in Boston is standing there, looking very mysterious and slightly damp. It’s a forest that might have forgotten what trees are for. If you hear rustling, don’t turn around too quickly.

Millennium Milepost BostonVisitor information · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Millennium Milepost Boston is counting down to nothing in particular, right near Anton’s Gowt. It thinks it’s very important, so nod at it respectfully.

Pilgrim FathersMemorial · 2.8 mi

Explorer Tom Pilgrim Fathers memorial in Boston is probably looking wistfully at the sky. They went to America, but this statue stays put. Give it a nod for its loyalty to the hometown team.
