Against the rules to have one buried in the neighbourhood (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
not fair
'buried in the neighbourhood' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'against the rules to have one' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'against' could be 'no' and 'no' is found in the answer.
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
