Get new accommodation for that woman, back by river (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rehouse

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

'get new accommodation for' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'woman back by river' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'her' (her refers to a woman).
'back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'by river' becomes 'ouse' (Yorkshire river. I am not sure about the 'by' bit.).
'her' backwards is 'reh'.
'reh'+'ouse'='REHOUSE'

'that' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rehouse that I've seen before include "Provide with new accommodation" , "Provide with new abode" , "Provide alternative accommodation" , "Put in new accommodation" , "Provide with new home" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
