Permit I see to put up tiny building on Park Lane? (5)
I believe the answer is:
hotel
'tiny building on park lane?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'permit i see to put up' is the wordplay.
'permit' becomes 'let' (synonyms).
'i see' becomes 'oh' (both can mean 'I understand').
'to put up' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'let'+'oh'='letoh'
'letoh' in reverse letter order is 'HOTEL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hotel that I've seen before include "sleeper" , "Savoy, perhaps" , "Large inn" , "Accommodation building" , "temporary accommodation" .)
