How collecting works
Rarity is an editorial measure of how collectible a place is within Unfound Earth—not how difficult, dangerous, or accessible it is to visit. Rarer finds award more XP. Marking a place FOUND adds it to your collection and awards its base XP once.

Overview
Eyam's story includes the village's isolation during the plague of 1665-1666, alongside its wider social and industrial history. The collectible is the historic village, not admission to Eyam Museum or any other individual attraction.

Getting there
Eyam Museum's village guide lists car parks and public toilets on Hawkhill Road, opposite the museum. That is arrival information for the village; the catalogue pin represents its centre rather than the museum entrance.

Useful information
Access
The village guide identifies places including St Lawrence's Church, the Boundary Stone, Riley Graves and Eyam Hall. These have separate locations and visitor arrangements; a village listing does not imply access to every building or private property.
