Could be SHARD, a small piece of pottery. (chip)
SHAD = fish, around R, 'take' from the Latin 'recipere'

Thanks for that mattrom I had considered that answer and probably should have put the other last clue with it

Pull hers and there clutching paddle in loch ness 6/2words
?etow?

That would make S the first letter so I'm still confused as to an answer

Thanks for your input

ginge

And you've missed out a word in the clue that contributes to the wordplay. (each) before paddle.
Your "t" is wrong. It's the usual abbreviation for each in a dialect form (here and there) of pull.
It's an alternate name for paddle³ in Chambers.

All thumbs Yes each missed in haste

That's great ginge is the Shard answer correct?

The t was always iffy / There was a conflict on my part for the Buddhist temple WAT whether to use WT or WA

Thank you for your help

Yes, mattrom is spot on with shard.
Ideally you should post the puzzle name and number in the header. There probably is such a thread already in existence which you can access using search which may help if you need it.

These clues are from last week's Inquisitor (1537), a thematic puzzle which involved clashes in places. There is an earlier, much longer thread.

Thank you all for your pointers

I put up a separate post as there are no clashes. I have resolved the puzzle and end game,but these two clues I could not fathom and was hoping some kind sole could shine light on

Thanks to all who helped, I still cannot find the answer to the two word dialect clue ginge refers to

SEAOW? (The clue is above) thanks again for pointers but was aware of the thread which is no help, other than I should have posted this query there maybe?

Cheers
