Hi emeritus, thanks for this, but I think it's "point". Well that's one of the Link words, so presume point must be correct. Thanks, though.

26a is"whig".

Thanks to all, have a good day .

Chox.

Scottish Presbyterians were known as whigs in the 17th century.

OK, one of many definitions of Whig in The Free Dictionary is a Scottish Presbyterian. Pretty obscure, like scole (tall plinth) - didn't feel this was one of the best Herculis crosswords.
