Churches either side of the head? (7)
I believe the answer is:
temples
'churches' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for temples that I've seen before include "Places of worship" , "Cerebral" , "Buildings for the workship of gods" , "Houses of worship" , "Buildings for the workshop of gods" .)
