There. Most of them became zones right away, great suggestions!

Was a bit sceptical about MaidensWell, couldn't see anything like a well but I hope you placed your GPS point well.

Couldn't find any nice spot for Newfield so I placed one nearby on The Devon Way (old railway I suppose).

The Tillicoultry Clock Tower was really nice but the square was very narrow. I was thinking of placing a zone on the other side of the road but then it became more of a holy zone in front of the church. Maybe in the future.

Light was to close to the Holy zone I created at the church. Cool story but the church wins this time.
