Loved this like everyone else. Stuck on last one, though - should be easy - an anagram of atheist, surely?

19d Mooring for atheist at sea (7)

Yes - there are (apparently) several of them in one place on the Yorkshire coast!

Thanks, ronh - Mrs Trellis gave the full quote on the other thread.

Murex is the soure of "Tyrian purple", a very expensive dye, used at one time only for dyeing Caesar's togas.

Still confused on 19d - atnight or atsight I'm assuming - but can't find either with a google search.

I do love Araucaria's bank holiday puzzles but should I feel guilty about using Wikipedia etc? Could anyone manage this unaided? 1930s archbishops among many others.

Well I don't think so. Particularly with something as specialist as this theme. And I'm sure Araucaria looks things up.

I think you're right. He takes you on an educational treasure hunt. A lot of fun and huge smugness with the completed grid.
