Hair cut by a large boozer (5)
I believe the answer is:
local
'boozer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'hair cut by a large' is the wordplay.
'hair' becomes 'lock' (a lock of hair).
'cut' means to remove the last letter.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'large' becomes 'L' (eg in clothes sizes).
'lock' with its final letter taken off is 'loc'.
'loc'+'a'+'l'='LOCAL'
(Other definitions for local that I've seen before include "Pub down the road?" , "(Pub) of the district" , "Regional; nearby" , "Regional; a pub" , "In the vicinity" .)
