As viewed from the promenade, sitting next to Edward? (3)
I believe the answer is:
sea
'edward?' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'as viewed from the promenade sitting next' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'from' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'sa' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sea that I've seen before include "Cause of flooding" , "Eg, Aral, Ross, Irish" , "Caspian, e.g." , "E.g. Yellow, Red area" , "Expanse of salt water" .)
