I am querying mad steves answer to 19. across. trog comes up in dictionary or thesaurus as shorten form of trogladyte. Though have to say couldn't find anything else to fit!
Sorry mad steve to question your answer. Can you put me right on this one, please.

[cupid04]

trog does also mean to walk heavily

[Lie-in King]

May I?

Chambers has - trog - to walk (usu) heavily and wearily

The cryptic also gives 'to' (on the) left & right of r(iver) + George

[fredrika]

Thank you both of you for help, I'll buy a new dictionary!

Hi fredrika

No problem in asking the question, I have in the past got a few wrong and I'm first to admit it.

Thanks also to Cupid04 and Lie-in King, for the imput they have made.
