Village Pump on South East Corner of GreenListed building · 329 ydExplorer Tom The Village Pump on the Green is sitting there, waiting for someone to pull a handle that might not work anymore. It's Grade II listed and definitely thirsty. Take a photo of it.
Magnolia HouseListed building · 1109 ydExplorer Tom Magnolia House in Braintree probably smells like flowers even though it’s winter. It’s a Grade II building, so the blooms might be made of plaster. Find the prettiest window for a photo!
Parsonage WoodForest · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Parsonage Wood in Braintree sounds like it’s hiding a vicar who forgot to lock his door. Legend says he’s still in there, muttering sermons at the squirrels. Wave hello if you see him!
Remains of church and churchyard, 80m south east of The RyesScheduled monument · 1.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Remains of church and churchyard, 80m south east of The Ryes in Braintree is a bit of a skeleton show. All the bones are out, but no one knows why yet!
Children's playground1.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground in Braintree has no info, just pure potential for weirdness. It might be haunted by a grumpy vicar. Get me a shot of any odd shadows on the walls.
Seven Acre WoodWood · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Seven Acre Wood is exactly seven acres, or so the name claims. I doubt anyone has measured it since the last ice age. It's on the field edge, which means it's always half in and half out. Check if you can step over it without getting muddy. Send me a pic of the boundary.
Pebmarsh Great War MemorialMemorial · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Pebmarsh Great War Memorial lists names like Ralph Chinnery. That sounds like a chap who liked his tea strong. Did he survive? The list says no! Take a photo of those brave names.
The War Memorial at PebmarshHeritage place · 1.7 miExplorer Tom The War Memorial at Pebmarsh in Braintree is standing guard over a village that probably ignores it most days. It’s very dignified, which I respect, even if I’d prefer a pizza shop nearby. Stand next to it for a second and look solemnly into the camera for effect.
Roman villa south of Alphamstone churchScheduled monument · 1.8 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Roman villa south of Alphamstone church in Braintree might still have Roman slippers lying around. Imagine kicking off your shoes after a long day of empire-building!
Footpath to Hill FarmMountain or hill · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Footpath to Hill Farm is basically a rumor. You walk, you might arrive, you might meet a cow. That cow will judge your life choices. Enjoy!
Gestingthorpe Village SignPublic artwork · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Gestingthorpe Village Sign in Braintree is being incredibly shy about its past. Nothing written down, just pure mystery. I suspect it’s actually a portal to another dimension. Peek inside carefully.
