Boxes in deserted farmhouse containing stuff to go to Sweden (6)
I believe the answer is:
frames
'boxes' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'deserted farmhouse containing stuff to go to sweden' is the wordplay.
'deserted' means to remove the middle letters.
'containing' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'stuff' becomes 'ram' (ramming is a kind of stuffing).
'to go to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'sweden' becomes 's'.
'farmhouse' with its centre taken out is 'fe'.
'fe' enclosing 'ram' is 'frame'.
'frame'+'s'='FRAMES'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for frames that I've seen before include "Supporting or surrounding structures" , "Rounds of snooker play, or spectacles structures" , "Borders, around pictures say" .)
