The Mysterious Disappearance of Rowan Merrilee
It was a dark and stormy night when Rowan Merrilee, a beloved boatman and champion home brewer, mysteriously disappeared. The next morning, a tatty old map covered in scribbles was found in the river by expert angler, Rod N'Tackle. The Intrepid Explorer Society believes that the scribbles are actually a series of clues hidden throughout the villages along the Tees Valley. Will YOU be able to follow the clues and uncover the truth behind Rowan's disappearance?

Embark on an exciting self-guided treasure hunt through the picturesque villages of the Tees Valley.

Your adventure begins in the charming village of Croft-on-Tees, with its scenic church nestled on the banks of the Tees. The Trail then takes you through the pretty villages of Hurworth, Neasham, Middleton One Row, and Egglescliffe, and even includes a short section of the Teesdale Way.
