Lincolnshire Street Names
3 Answers
There are several replies saying you cannot help if you dont live in the county, but if you are good at cryptic, then you may well be able to help. Us local yokels can add whether its road/street/ave etc but help is needed mainly with the first part of the clues, so, if anyone can come up with name suggestions for the following I and others would be very grateful, after all, street names are similar nation wide, like the pub names were.
16 Cars bikes & snooker tables, shut the door (?? Close)
21 This is not a millionaires road in or out
28 Without side windows, bricks & blocks, going into house
59 Cattle in market, prostitute on corner
60 Hear some cricketers doing this, not fat
66 Asparagus first, could be rose or walled (?? Gardens)
67 Flower or glove, small part in play
69 Ace of spades, sounds like what the jockey did (?? Road)
74 Spent time in French church, singer Miss Lois
77 Monday, Friday ring one, in football result one one was
108 Little John's friend, take Nottingham Castle way
Many thanks for any suggestions.

76 I am thinking that steptoe was a dirty old man who had a horse called Hercules and they lived in oil drum LANE. wondered if relaid means an anagram but havent found one.
113 I have pencilled in Celtic Close but even though it is listed in the Lincs Street Atlas, it is actually in Peterboro.
I just wonder if the setter has used the street lists for his clues without looking where they are on the map. I have another answer pencilled in which is listed in the streets but is actually in Hull.
Think there will be a lot of hair-tearing before we get this one finished lol
