Any of the modern selective lawn weedkillers should do; Verdone Extra
or Resolva come to mind. If you've got a large patch to treat, you'll
find it cheaper to get concentrate and dilute it yourself, rather than
a hand spray of pre-diluted stuff. Clover may not totally succumb at
the first application, but two goes should see it off. EG:

If you want to be sure of getting the same type of clover as in the
original part of the lawn, do what I did and use a bulb planter to
extract plugs from areas containing the right sort of clover, and
transplant them into the clover-free parts. Use the plugs from the
clover-free parts to back-fill the holes in the original part. I
suppose you could just cut turves with a spade, but make sure the
planting holes match the turves for size. Clover spreads quite
quickly, and in a year or two the two parts should be
indistinguishable. But that depends to some extent on how many plugs
you exchange. The more, the faster the two parts will match up.


Some great suggestions there - thank you.
