Well, that took all of 90 minutes! Your turn Mudman...

I'm just gobsmacked that I worked it out. Usually totally rubbish at these things.
I'll let someone else jump in as I'm even worse at creating them as well.

On your head pony prancer! (6,3)

I think we may need a bit of help with this one - a further clue such as which region perhaps?

Is there an Antler Pot? Could this be it?

Ian Ball · « **Reply #2956 on:** September 27, 2017, 09:56:11 pm »

Well this is embarrassing, I forgot t was me who put the clue in and now can't remember the answer.

Oh yes, actually I still think it is a good clue.

It's a feature not a cave,

Ian Ball · « **Reply #2957 on:** September 28, 2017, 10:11:32 pm »

Oh dear, I must be wrong about it being good clue, so an explanation,

On your head = type of headwear
pony prancer = person associated with horses
prancer! = rearrange the order

Holy site fails over time. 7,7

It's a feature

andys · « **Reply #2960 on:** October 11, 2017, 01:00:06 pm »

... methinks we may need a further (like - which area) to help us home in on this one!

Same here . . . well, I assume the second word's Passage.

Stemple Highway?

crickleymal · « **Reply #2967 on:** October 12, 2017, 02:25:51 pm »

Meccano Passage which I think is in Hillocks Mine. Holy site fails over time. Mecca no pass age.

Over to someone else.

Good one - so easy when you see the answer!

The Living Dead (series Penyghent Pot) - assuming word count slip-up

andys · « **Reply #2970 on:** October 12, 2017, 07:32:50 pm »

Nope. Its a cave name, not a feature.

And those with an up-to-date guide book may be at an advantage!
