    7. Number of roods in Dogsmead times 9 Down. 384

    8. Date (year) when little P became occupied by the Dunks. 1110

    15. Cube of Dunk's walking speed (miles per hour). 27

    16. 15 Across minus 9 Down. 16


    Clues Down:

    1. Value of Dogsmead in shillings per acre. 340

    2. Square of Mrs. D's age. 7921

    3. Mary's age. 21

    4. Value of Dogsmead in pounds. 544

    6. Age of Dunk's first-born, Ed, who will be twice as old as Mary next year. 48

    7. Square of the number of yds which is the breadth of Dogsmead. 30976

    8. Number of minutes Farmer Dunk takes to walk one and a third times round Dogsmead. 12

    9. see 10 Down. 11

    12. Sum of digits in second column plus 1. 19

    13. Length of tenure in years of little P by the Dunks. 829
    Almost all the answers are same as what I got, but some of these don't match. As a result we are getting some weird combinations:

    5. Age of Farmer Dunk's daughter, Martha. 91
    10. Farmer Dunk's age. 72

    ???? :P

    I will go through your solution later and find out where it differs from mine But idhu varaikum solva pannadhuku

    GP, your dimensions of the farm is correct. That is where I stammered a bit, for that.

    But there are some assumptions which I dont find in the original questions, some of them are even contradicting too..

    since the current year is 1939,

    son of farmer Dunk, who will be in 1945 twice as old as his sister Mary => current year is 1944???

    13 Down ("the number of years that Dog's Mead is owned by the Dunk family") can now only be 829

    Pls explain
