It's not on the draughty side (3)
I believe the answer is:
lee
'side' is the definition.
(I know that lee is a type of side)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lee that I've seen before include "Sheltered from the wind in Cork, perhaps" , "Robert E. - - , US hero" , "actor" , "Sheltered accommodation" , "Confederate general" .)
