Turn say, northwards below clear path on hill (8)
I believe the answer is:
ridgeway
'turn say northwards below clear' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'path on hill' is the wordplay.
'path' becomes 'way' (synonyms).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'hill' becomes 'ridge' (I've seen this in another clue).
'way' after 'ridge' is 'RIDGEWAY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ridgeway that I've seen before include "one over the mountain" , "Track on high ground" , "Hilltop track" , "Ancient high path" , "Track along hilltops" .)
