Are they built with axes, possibly? (5)
I believe the answer is:
sheds
'axes possibly?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with contact as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sheds that I've seen before include "Discards" , "Casts off the outhouses?" , "Small huts as used in gardens" , "Casts off the outbuildings" , "stores" .)
