Headland (possibly).
Question Author
Thanks - that looks promising.
Hi Never,

I think 24D is ALLHEAL, another name for Valerian. One of the answers to be adapted?
And 10D possibly wellhead - another word to be adapted?
Question Author
Thanks, boreas - only 9 answers to be adapted and I have two just as I'm starting!
Question Author
Re 10 D - I see now why 'wellhead' looks to be more correct.Now going to have a think about how to adapt those two.
I think 2D and 4D are another two - and their spellings all have something in common
Question Author
Thanks for that, boreas - I haven't got 2 and 4 D yet, but will concentrate around certain letters.
Question Author
Boreas, your tip (re the spelling) helped with 4 D. Thanks again.
any thoughts on 11D? One of the words to be adapted?
Question Author
Sorry, I have no letters at all yet for 11 D! ( I did have it beginning with an 'a', but what I had for 11 A seems to be wrong).
You have the right letter for 11A - it is 'a'
I have 8 of the 9 answers, the names and the central cell - but stuck on 7A and 41A
Question Author
Wow - well done, I have a long way to go.
I do, however, have 7 A - it's a Scottish word, was in Chambers. Let me know if you'd like me to (try to)give you an other hint.
Yes please
Question Author
If you've got the names you'll know that it's an 'e' to go in the definition. It's in the first half of the clue - sorry, I'm struggling to hint.
I think I have the answer - 3rd letter is L and last letter is S.
As you said, the correct letter is E. But what word in the clue does E go in as the correct letter?
Question Author
I thought 'finds' became 'finEs' - hope so!
I wouldn't mind a hint for 11 D if you could be bothered. Thanks.
I can't believe I didn't see that!

11D is the last of the nine that I am stuck on.
But I have the answers to 11, 13, 20,26,29 and 36 if these are any help.
Question Author
Boreas, I was starting to doubt my answer for 7 A - it was one of my early misprints/corrections/changes.
Help with any two on your list would be great - say 20 and 26? Thanks.
