Abode fashioned in brick (5)
I believe the answer is:
adobe
'brick' is the definition.
(adobe brick is a kind of brick)
'abode fashioned' is the wordplay.
'fashioned' indicates anagramming the letters.
'abode' is an anagram of 'ADOBE'.
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for adobe that I've seen before include "Clay for mud bricks" , "Building material of clay and straw dried in the sun" , "Mexican mud and straw brick, and the hut made of it" , "Sun-dried brick clay" , "Clay used for sun-dried bricks" .)
