Cairn British History Quest

Hello world

Cairn is open.

Every day one place from the history of Britain is hidden on the map — a battlefield, an abbey, a castle, a shipwreck, a wartime hut. You get the year and a scene told from the ground by the people who were there, and one question: where is this happening?

You drop a pin and confirm it. Three checkpoints, three parts of the story, and the story moves on whatever you guess. On the last confirm, wherever your marker is standing is your answer.

This is where the notes will go: the history behind a quest once it has closed, what the sources actually say, and where to go and stand if you want to see the place for yourself.

Play today's quest — or read how it works first.
