    Thanks 5133.

    Chip's partner got off the horse and reduced it to one.

    Clyde?
    Horse = Clydesdale. Chip's friend is Dale (chipmunk pair). Take Dale from Clydesdale = Clydes; reduce to one (singular) = Clyde.

    I must say, I am impressed. I expected that one to be a more curly problem. Clyde it is, Kurmudgeon. Green over green for you.

    A "villa" is a bee-fly, not as large as your typical butterfly, but an insect nonetheless.  So, Villawood?

    Not Villawood.

    A famous butterfly is the Monarch; a king is a monarch, so how about -
    Kingswood?

    Not Kingswood.

    Rock across the water = stone-craft.

    On the other side of the world = Woll, a village in Scotland

    Wollstonecraft?

    Ingenious, but not what I had in mind.  However, you're on the right track with "the other side of the world".

    Petersham (petros = rock (easy for a geologist;-)), Petersham = a 'village' in England)?

    Sorry, not Waverton.

    This seems like a stretch but I'll go with it...

    Penrith?
    Penrith is a town in England. The name is derived from a Welsh word meaning "hill (rock?) ford (water crossing)".

    Across the water is Rock.
