Address given by the parson, maybe (5)
I believe the answer is:
manse
'address' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for manse that I've seen before include "Scottish minister's house" , "Scots minister's house" , "building near church?" , "Religious minister's house" , "Presbyterian minister's residence" .)
