Last member of Cottesmore Hunt's turned up to pay respects (6)
I believe the answer is:
esteem
'last member of cottesmore' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'hunt's turned up to pay respects' is the wordplay.
'hunt' becomes 'meet' (I've seen this before).
'turned up' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'to' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'pay respects' becomes 'es' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'meet' reversed gives 'teem'.
'teem' put after 'es' is 'ESTEEM'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for esteem that I've seen before include "Honour - regard" , "Look upon favourably" , "Favourable regard" , "credit" , "Value highly" .)
