Back to Mayem Parva by Vagans, a difficult one to crack. Answers to this batch of Down clues should help me to penetrate the rest of the puzzle for my edification. Spectator was a walk in the park in comparison! Thanks in advance!
( Villainy is afoot once again in an English village. Extra letters given by the wordplay of down clues (not to be entered) spell out a hint which can help identify the serial protagonist (and avoid two red herrings linked to the location). Solvers should highlight the name of the village (12) and the person responsible for the events (6) (17 cells in all). Chambers is recommended. )

1 Clot of sticky stuff on highland river (6) : DO?SE?
9 Piece about bridge by eastern war poet (6) : ??O??? (BROOKE)
6 Old herald's wavy leap unknown (5) : ?SN??
12 Military Cross on Napoleon's island leads to some sort of toast (5):?E??U
16 Fish in disturbed eastern sound made bird look again (8) : ??O????D
21 Tell for instance one who is keeping in step (6) : ?RCH?R (ARCHER)
28 Theatrical in a frosty way about part of sound system? (5) : ??MPE

12. That 'u' looks wrong to me. M elba, surely?
12 M(c)-Elba - melba toast
Great minds, Chris - bit of a novelty ;0))
21 (M)Archer - William Tell
16 I think this is Unseeled, with the O (from sound) extra
6 Oundy
28 Campy
28 R-amp-e
Matakari, has the batch of earlier answers helped you get the hint? I'd expect some words to be appearing, from the extra letters you've been given...
28 Yes,Campy - I was working around (I)c-amp-e to start with but didn't get the theatrical bit, quite.
Thanks, Captain2 - I went off to hunt through Chambers for Rampe (and wondered how I was going to fix an Across entry!)
Soorrrry. ;0))
Captain2, thanks - I was going to stick with my answers anyway.
Question Author
Thanks, all, but not a hint yet! I need to look at the letters a bit harder perhaps. Meanwhile 1(D) and 9(D). And for verification, I believe I got LIGATES for 8(D)
8 Tags eaglets circling heart of shire (7) -??G????
Ligates isn't correct.
Grr, Matakari - you were given 8 D in your last batch. I think you've had so many, you're now losing track!
:o))))

Many thanks, all!
Thanks, Matakari - and here's hoping we won't see 8 D again! I don't think there are many Down entries left now, so your chances of 'cracking this' have increased.
