A jail made of pine bark (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
long bay
'a jail made' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'pine bark' is the wordplay.
'pine' becomes 'long' (synonyms).
'bark' becomes 'bay' (baying is a kind of barking).
'long'+'bay'='LONG BAY'
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
