Look in a southeasterly direction (3)
I believe the answer is:
see
This clue might be a double definition.
'look in' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'a southeasterly direction' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for see that I've seen before include "Bishop's responsibility; observe" , "Consider; diocese" , "Up-and-down motion" , "Understand; watch" , "... have interview with" .)
