Mere CottageListed building · 217 ydExplorer Tom Mere Cottage in Braintree sits on Linnets Lane, so the birds are definitely the real owners here. It looks like it's listening to their chit-chat, taking notes for its next gossip session.
Wixoe Roman townScheduled monument · 359 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.
Children's playground929 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground number eight in Braintree is probably where they hide the spare swings. Or the missing socks. Look under the slide for any small, damp items and keep them as souvenirs.
Sturmer War MemorialMemorial · 1041 ydExplorer Tom Sturmer War Memorial in Braintree stands there looking vaguely confused about its own job. I bet it gets a lot of 'sorry, wrong town' energy from tourists. Snap a blurry pic if you can find it without getting lost first!
River Stour at Wixoe MillOld home or work place · 1346 ydExplorer Tom River Stour at Wixoe Mill flows with the secrets of the past. I bet the mill wheel is still turning, just waiting for someone to pay the toll.
Sturmer Hall moated site and mill complexScheduled monument · 1668 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Sturmer Hall moated site and mill complex is a water-powered powerhouse. The moat’s likely cold and the mill is probably broken. Go see if the gears still turn or if they’re just for show.
Devil's GroveWood · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Devil's Grove in Braintree? That's cheeky. I bet the devil just stopped by for a coffee and left his hat behind. Look for red stains.
Maze PlantationWood · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Maze Plantation in Braintree is literally a maze. I got lost finding the fence line already. The trees are plotting to confuse you too. Bring a compass and a lot of patience, it's tricky in there!
London to Walsingham - stage 04Walking route · 2.4 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this walking route.Explorer Tom London to Walsingham - stage 04 in Braintree is part of a massive pilgrimage walk. Stage four sounds serious business! Just check you’re on the right bit and take a pic of the signpost.
War MemorialMonument · 2.6 miExplorer Tom War Memorial in Ridgewell stands on The Green. It's a monument, not a person, but I bet it has opinions. Does it like the weather? Ask it and take a picture while you're at it!
Stambourne PlaygroundChildren's playground · 3.0 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Stambourne Playground in Brainting is keeping its cards close to its chest again. Very mysterious little patch of grass. Snap a picture of any odd clouds overhead for the album.
Footpath from Nosterfield End to Horseham HallHeritage place · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Footpath from Nosterfield End to Horseham Hall in Braintree sounds like a route for people who hate straight lines. It’s probably muddy, so wear boots or regret this choice later. Take a picture of your feet if they get stuck in the muck!
