Awkward dog, elegant bridge (6,4)
I believe the answer is:
golden gate
'bridge' is the definition.
(Golden Gate Bridge is an example)
'awkward dog elegant' is the wordplay.
'awkward' indicates anagramming the letters.
'dog'+'elegant'='dogelegant'
'dogelegant' anagrammed gives 'GOLDEN GATE'.
(Another definition for golden gate that I've seen is " San Francisco bridge".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
