Changed wheels before getting to another place (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elsewhere

'to another place' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'changed wheels before getting' is the wordplay.
'changed' indicates an anagram.
'before' becomes 'ere' (poetic term).
'getting' indicates putting letters inside.
'wheels' with letters rearranged gives 'lsewhe'.
'lsewhe' going into 'ere' is 'ELSEWHERE'.

(Other definitions for elsewhere that I've seen before include "abroad?" , "In a different place" , "Not in this place - try another" , "different places" , "different position" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
