Fragments of pitcher finally found in outhouses (6)
I believe the answer is:
sherds
'fragments' is the definition.
('sherd' can be a synonym of 'fragment')
'pitcher finally found in outhouses' is the wordplay.
'finally' says to take the final letters.
'found in' indicates putting letters inside.
'outhouses' becomes 'sheds' (I've seen this before).
The last letter of 'pitcher' is 'r'.
'r' placed into 'sheds' is 'SHERDS'.
'of' acts as a link.
(Another definition for sherds that I've seen is " Broken pieces of pottery".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
