garbles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'confuses' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'front of roof in parts of walls' is the wordplay.
'front of roof in' becomes 'gar' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'parts' becomes 'blues' (blue is a kind of part).
'of walls' suggests removing the centre (I've seen 'walls' mean this (the walls are the letters on each edge)).
'blues' with its middle removed is 'bles'.
'gar'+'bles'='GARBLES'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for garbles that I've seen before include "Mixes up" , "Confuses, distorts (a message)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
