[hops]

thanks all, that leaves no [1] monarch tube [8 letters]

[newmodarmy]

1 suggests Victoria to me (monarch and name of tube line), but it's not a coastal resort in GB

[douglas9401]

Kinghorn?

[newmodarmy]

Best so far, douglas. I looked for a kinghose but found nothing.

[hops]

the penultimate 4 are

[1] flower ends here      [9 letters]

[2] water holes              [ 5 letters]

[3]  fishing community of small cottages   [9 letters]

[4]  pointed tool breaks up pottery  [7] letters

no 2 will not be wells as it is a city and not really a coastal resort and as for no.4 there is a place called upottery which has 8 letters and not 7 which is the number given here

 

 

 

[3]pointed tool breaks up pottery

[newmodarmy]

awl may be the pointed tool

pottery- vase, urn, ware, ming

[newmodarmy]

Tynemouth for the flower ends here clue?

[Madgeorge]

I thought the places were in a sort of progressive order around the coast.

You should be able to trace the places on a map or atlas.

Might have helped the helpers!

Who aren't contributing to the charity by entering the competition.

[douglas9401]

I thought it would be okay answering from my house, MG, as charity begins at home.
