Nice puzzle.
One slight query. Is drawing a loop around the same as circling or is something else required? Draw a loop around the place name seems an unnecessarily specific instruction if circle the place name would suffice.

@smithsax - I just took it as circling the place name. Maybe I missed something though as drawing a loop is unusual wording if circling is all that’s required.

All done other than the place name, i can't see any contenders as yet. Posting usually helps though.

Thanks, JA. There are two sequences of line segments.

I think that the ‘drawing a loop’ instruction - rather than just ‘circling’ - is only to convey that ‘circling’ something longer than one cell won’t strictly produce a circle.

It just means a loop around the place name to identify it; a name in this case which is perhaps unusual but definitely unambiguous in the context of the theme.

Do any cells have more than one letter, or are some letters missed out?

I’m finding this more difficult than most of you are.

I’m thinking 2d must be ………………….. but obviously it doesn’t fit in the space.

Cloverjo, the rules of this forum have now become so strict that I don't know if I'm allowed to answer your question, but I will. .........................................

Note by Admin - post amended as it was considered too revealing, sorry Murky. I try not to be too strict overall in the Forum but the Listener has "unique status" and is treated as such when too much info is given. I should stress that I only amend when I am emailed by concerned Forum members.

Thank you. I didn’t want too much info given. But that helps to know.

Cloverjo, when I see the 'Numbers in brackets are the lengths of grid entries', I expect there to be some... adjustments.

PS I don't think you should have given 2 Down - I think answers aren't to be seen!

Is the place a building rather than a village/town/city etc?
