Good guess if you are not a Rugby fan. Correct.

2 out of 3 correct (and thank you for working out that I had dropped a clanger with no. 42). 23 is still to be solved.

7 Does this structure take advantage of the view here? (9)

Struggling with this one, got fixated with 'bridge' but can only think of Weybridge which I can't reconcile with the clue.

Fixation isn't going to help here. Perhaps we need more architects or property developers in these parts. If we go another 24 hours I'll give a bit more of a clue.
