German town associable with Manchester (5)
I believe the answer is:
halle
'german' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for halle that I've seen before include "Berry, possibly" , "Manchester's orchestra" , "Noted players" , "Manchester orchestra founder" , "Orchestra based in Manchester" .)
