Brownstone porch (5)
I believe the answer is:
stoop
'brownstone porch' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for stoop that I've seen before include "Lean forward" , "Bent posture" , "go on a bender?" , "Bend the body forwards" , "Bend the top half of the body" .)
