ERG is a unit of work or energy, direction = E(ast), NIE is an alternative spelling of 'nigh', up or due

Mattrom, I parsed it another way...
Erg, work, up - Gre
NE, direction, up - Ne
IE, that's, that is, id est. Ie.

The 'up's make me think it was a Down clue.

That sounds better Malone, nie/nigh looks too obscure in relation to the other clues.

Thanks, Mattrom - and sorry I typed Ne again rather than the En it was meant to be!
