Church of St PeterListed building · 133 yd

Explorer Tom Church of St Peter is a Grade I gem in Yaxham, which basically means it's ancient and probably grumpy. Peek inside if you dare, but mind your step on that nave floor.

Yaxham War MemorialListed building · 171 yd

Explorer Tom Yaxham War Memorial is doing its best impression of a mysterious guardian. The details are thin, so maybe it’s just a very confident rock? Give it a nod before you move on.

Yaxham Village SignPublic artwork · 268 yd

Explorer Tom Yaxham Village Sign in Breckland is mysterious and unrecorded, which makes it perfect for a quick photo op before the locals notice you are there. Wave at it for the camera!

Boronia CottageListed building · 293 yd

Explorer Tom Boronia Cottage sounds like it’s named after a fancy plant, but it’s just a Grade II building on Norwich Road. It might be hiding a secret tea party in there.

Yaxham Waters Holiday ParkHeritage attraction · 730 yd

Explorer Tom Yaxham Waters Holiday Park looks like it's having a very expensive day off. It’s a heritage attraction, which is funny because most holidays aren't that old yet. Take a photo of the water pretending to be ancient and dignified for my blog post.

Lolly MoorNature reserve · 1.0 mi

Explorer Tom Lolly Moor is a nature reserve that sounds like a sweet shop got lost on the way to the heath. I suspect there are no lollies, just moody clouds and confused walkers. Enjoy!

Long PlantationWood · 1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Long Plantation in Breckland is long, boring, and has a nice footpath view. It just keeps going, and going, and going. Take a wide shot to show how endless it is!

Old MilestoneMonument or public art · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Old Milestone in Breckland is just standing there, looking lost without a car to measure. It's probably been marking distances since before your great-grandpa learned to walk. Snap it for me before it wanders off!

Bishop Bonner's CottageArchaeological place · 2.0 mi

Explorer Tom Bishop Bonner's Cottage in Breckland is named after a bishop, so expect some religious history. Access is unknown, so check before entering. It’s an archaeological place. Take a picture for me of the cottage. I bet it has character.

The Assembly RoomsMemorial · 2.0 mi

Explorer Tom The Assembly Rooms in Breckland was built in 1756 on the spot where the old prison used to be. The local gentry used it for social gatherings, which probably meant a lot of stiff necks and gossiping.

Wensum WayVisitor information · 3.5 mi

Explorer Tom The Wensum Way is back again! This one’s marked as a public footpath. So, you can walk it? Probably. Check the signs and enjoy the scenery while you're at it.

Hoe CommonVisitor information · 4.2 mi

Explorer Tom Hoe Common was born in an Inclosure Act of 1811. It used to be for the poor, gathering gorse for fuel. Now it’s rare acidic heathland. Respect its history and beauty!
