Building occupied by force? (6,7)
I believe the answer is:
police station
'building' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'occupied by force?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'occupied' could be 'at' (being occupied or busy at something) and 'at' is found in the answer.
'force?' could be 'police' (police is a kind of force) and 'police' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for police station that I've seen before include "Constabulary HQ" , "Nick" , "Cop shop" , "PC's base" , "headquarters for law- enforcers" .)
