Animal shelter contains device which monitors small dwelling (7)
I believe the answer is:
cottage
'small dwelling' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'animal shelter contains device which monitors' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'shelter' could be 'cot' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'cot' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cottage that I've seen before include "simple accommodation" , "Small living space" , "Small house with a single storey" , "Rural house" , "Small house, in the country say" .)
