High land where the Poles chop wood to the north (7)
I believe the answer is:
snowdon
'high land' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'the poles chop wood to the north' is the wordplay.
'the poles' becomes 'SN' (North and South poles).
'chop' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'to the north' becomes 'N' (abbreviation).
'wood' with letters rearranged gives 'owdo'.
'sn'+'owdo'+'n'='SNOWDON'
'where' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for snowdon that I've seen before include "Highest point of England and Wales" , "Highest mountain in Wales" , "Welsh mountain" , "Highest peak in Wales" , "that is looked up to in Wales" .)
