Crag
Answer:
TOR
Hint:
Think of a rocky outcrop often found on moorland or hills, especially in places like Dartmoor. It’s taller than a boulder but not quite a mountain.
Explanation:
"Crag" is a straightforward definition clue pointing to a rocky outcrop or steep cliff. The answer "TOR" fits because it’s a specific term for a high rock or hill, especially in the UK—think of famous spots like Hay Tor in Dartmoor. No wordplay here, just a direct synonym where "tor" is the more precise geological term for what most would call a crag.
