'destroyer' is the definition.
(vandal is a kind of destroyer)

'a famous museum at leatherhead' is the wordplay.
'a famous museum' becomes 'vanda' (Victoria and Albert Museum. I am not sure about the 'famous' bit.).
'at' says to put letters next to each other.
'leatherhead' becomes 'l' (head letter of 'leather').
'vanda'+'l'='VANDAL'

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
