Walk slowly from valley, taking in edges of wood (6)
I believe the answer is:
dawdle
'walk slowly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'valley taking in edges of wood' is the wordplay.
'valley' becomes 'dale' (dale is a kind of valley).
'taking in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'edges of' suggests removing the centre.
'wood' with its middle taken out is 'wd'.
'dale' placed around 'wd' is 'DAWDLE'.
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for dawdle that I've seen before include "'Linger, hang back (6)'" , "Wander along slowly" , "Dilly-dally" , "Move slowly and lazily" , "Act slowly" .)
