Local cul-de-sac (5)
I believe the answer is:
close
This clue might be a double definition.
'local' is the first definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'cul-de-sac' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for close that I've seen before include "Bar" , "Tightly" , "cul-de-sac" , "Meeting with a UFO?" , "Stop proceedings" .)
