Helpful Hints
- This clue's indicators are 'lead', 'found by', and 'empty'. One of these is a selection indicator naming the position of an important letter in neighbouring fodder. Another is a deletion indicator guiding us to delete some letters from adjacent fodder (and keep what remains). And 'found by' aids the surface while leaving the wordplay unchanged: what comes before is 'found by', or next to, what comes after.
- This clue's fodder is 'How', 'ammunition', and 'creek'. We'll need to find a substitute for one of these and use it with the letters of the others (or some of them) to construct our answer, as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
- Our definition here is 'bed between two trees?', and our answer will be something that fits this description.
