Country inn with memorial outside it (8)
'country' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'memorial outside it' is the wordplay.
'memorial' becomes 'relique' (I have seen 'ancient memorial' mean 'relique' so perhaps 'memorial' could also mean 'relique').
'outside' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters).
'it' becomes 'public' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'relique' with its middle removed is 're'.
're'+'public'='REPUBLIC'
'inn with' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
(Other definitions for republic that I've seen before include "State without monarch" , "Non-monarchical state" , "See 17" , "Cure blip (anag.)" , "State in which the people hold the power" .)
'country' is the definition.
(farmland is a kind of country)
'with memorial outside it' is the wordplay.
'with' indicates putting letters inside.
'outside' suggests removing the centre.
'it' becomes 'farand' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'memorial' with its centre removed is 'ml'.
'ml' put inside 'farand' is 'FARMLAND'.
'inn' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
(Other definitions for farmland that I've seen before include "Countryside used for crops or livestock" , "field" .)
