Please explain - can't make sense of 1)shoe-hoe on s(mall) deck shoe
I believe answer might be 7 letters but can't make out if you mean the answer is deck shoe - when the word deck is already in the clue.

Thanks

1a. It is shoe ..... s(small) hoe ( tool that tills earth )

[Gill55]

I am assuming S for small on hoe (an implement probably tiller and then you can have a deck shoe

[davebro]

(s) for small + hoe (for reaper) and a shoe can be a deck shoe.

The top line has 3 answers 4/5/4
