Well done Mr Roberts, I thought that might be a bit trickier! Your turn

P.D. Cornwall was the giveaway.

Clock House?

That didn't last long.

Over to you @D6130

Over to you @D6130

Thanks. Next clue:

Do not malign this station by dropping a letter from the code.

Newtonmore?

 

[D6130]

Newtonmore?

I'm afraid not!

 

[43106]

Moreton-in-Marsh?

 

[D6130]

Sorry, not that one either. I'll wait until later this evening....then if we don't have any further attempts, I'll drop a clue.

 

[43106]

It's a bit of a swine! I get the '...dropping a letter from the code...' but it's the maligning bit that's foxing me. I had to check the actual definition via an on-line dictionary. Pity, cos I've got a beauty lined up, if I could only get one right...

OK....I'll give you the clue now, seeing as you're working so hard on it! It's a slightly convoluted anagram.

Where do you get the second G from? I keep thinking it's got ...ington in it, but I'm still stumped.

I had a spare one.

 

[43106]

OK, my final go - ADLINGTON

 

[D6130]

OK, my final go - ADLINGTON

Getting closer linguistically....but not quite so close geographically!

Afraid not....but I like your thinking!

Aldrington?

 

[DaleCooper]

Cramlington

 

[D6130]

Cramlington

Yes....well done!

'CRS' is the 'code'....but not the code for that station. Drop the 'S' and you have 'CR'....which makes the anagram with 'not malign'.

Your turn for a night out in the toon.
