7 dn is "kerbstone" - a strange straighforward clue with no crypic element that I can find.

8 is a partial anagram

Yes, I thought "kerbstone" looked a toch too straightforward. No red herring there

Mamya, how does a partial anagram work? For 8 down, does "The Trotter"s Yard" make sense?

No, that is wrong - but you are getting closer. The answer could form the clue to the answer "old car and sty", and would be an anagram clue - but the answer to 8 dn is not an anagram.

Old car and sty = anagram(NEW version of ) Scotland Yard

Very smart Dot!

We almost went two whole pages before someone couldn't resist the temptation to blurt out the answer. Things are getting better.
