Local barman banning second old queen (6)
I believe the answer is:
tavern
'local' is the definition.
(local can mean a local pub)
'barman banning second old queen' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'queen' could be 'er' (abbreviation for Elizabeth Regina) and 'er' is present in the answer.
'banning second' could be 'a' (2nd letter of 'banning') and 'a' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tavern that I've seen before include "Building with a bar" , "Local" , "Watering hole" , "Old song: 'There is a ...... in the town, in the town'" , "Old-fashioned word for pub" .)
