French city where granny put up? (6)
I believe the answer is:
nantes
'french city' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'granny put up?' is the wordplay.
'granny' becomes 'nan'.
'put' becomes 'set' (setting is a kind of putting).
'up?' says the letters should be written in reverse (in down clue: letters go upwards).
'set' back-to-front is 'tes'.
'nan'+'tes'='NANTES'
'where' is the link.
(Other definitions for nantes that I've seen before include "City on the Loire, associated with 1598 edict ending the French Wars of Religion" , "City and port of W. France on the Loire" , "Loire city; its tolerant Edict" , "Western French port" , "Loire port; an old Edict" .)
