I'm sure this has been asked before but the answer is still eluding me - can anyone help:
27. Man's covering can be removed maybe with a knife (4)

Skin is the obvious answeer but I can't find a place called Skin!!
With thanks

Also have Peel. Please, has anyone got 48 Abigail's rock (9) or 64..Sounds as though there is an orient flyer living here (8,7). Thank you in advance

I have Maidstone for No. 48

Can anyone help me please with No. 89 - A new steam engine named John Haytor began work here in 2005 (8, 5)

[wymondham2]

Thank you Pollyanna, obvious when you see the answer!! I think there is a typing error in 89, because if you google John HaytoN it shows that he was stationmaster at Longleat House and had a train named after him in 2005.

Many thanks Wymondham - I am sure you are right - there is a typing error but I would not have guessed it only for you.
