Born to stroll and gather berries (7)
I believe the answer is:
bramble
'gather berries' is the definition.
'bramble' can be an answer for 'berries' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'gather' bit.
'born to stroll' is the wordplay.
'born' becomes 'b' (abbreviation next to the year of someone's birth).
'to stroll' becomes 'ramble' (synonyms).
'b'+'ramble'='BRAMBLE'
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bramble that I've seen before include "Briar" , "Prickly hazard" , "Prickly plant yielding blackberries" , "Source of fruit" , "Dog rose" .)
