Wasn't led astray in swampy areas (8)
I believe the answer is:
wetlands
'swampy areas' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'wasn't led astray' is the wordplay.
'astray' indicates an anagram.
'wasnt'+'led'='wasntled'
'wasntled' with letters rearranged gives 'WETLANDS'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wetlands that I've seen before include "Swampy area" , "marshy parts" , "Marshy regions of ecological importance" , "Swamps" .)
