Last two. 2dn Call of bird across one lake, raised in song (5) L?R?C Lyric? Have seen the debate about 26dn - Empty pipe filled by one trying to stop smoking (3,5) Inclined to go for dry lining but wonder what the general consensus is? Help would be greatly appreciated.

lyric is right. Call of bird = cry across one ( wrapped round i ) + l for lake then raised i.e. reversed

Thanks for the confirmation novalis.
A Dry Riser is a water pipe used for fire-fighting ( stop smoking) in tall buildings. It is empty (dry) until there is a fire when it is charged with water. There is also a wet riser which needs no explanation.
