Hope woman has somewhere to sit (3)
I believe the answer is:
pew
'somewhere to sit' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'hope woman has' is the wordplay.
'has' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'PEW' is hidden within 'hope woman'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pew that I've seen before include "Long bench in a church" , "Bench-like seat in a church" , "Long church seat" , "Part of flock sitting here" , "Where some of the flock rest" .)
