Crossword Genius

A door she used at first moving around wayside inn (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

roadhouse

'wayside inn' is the definition.
(an inn by the side of a road or way)

'a door she used at first moving' is the wordplay.
'at first' says to take the initial letters.
'moving' is an anagram indicator.
The initial letter of 'used' is 'u'.
'a'+'door'+'she'+'u'='adoorsheu'
'adoorsheu' with letters rearranged gives 'ROADHOUSE'.

'around' is the link.

(Other definitions for roadhouse that I've seen before include "place of refreshment" , "pub, by the way" , "Country inn" , "accommodation" .)
