6d "Grotty pub opening bottles? That's another story" (7)

??B?L?T Looks like it could be SUBPLOT but don't get the parsing

1a "British PM's keeping payment back for election transport" (11) B???L???S?S

11a "Estuary eroding rocks" (7) G???N?? looks like it's an anagram of eroding but can't see the name

Any help much appreciated
