'instrument' is the definition.
(ukulele is a kind of instrument)

'britain displayed by limerick university at half-eleven' is the wordplay.
'britain' becomes 'UK' (synonyms).
'displayed by limerick university' becomes 'ul' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'at' says to put letters next to each other.
'half' indicates taking half.
'eleven' halved is 'ele'.
'uk'+'ul'+'ele'='UKULELE'

'made in' acts as a link.
