Move aimlessly around about small English town (5)
I believe the answer is:
epsom
'english town' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'move aimlessly around about small' is the wordplay.
'move aimlessly' becomes 'mope' (moping is a kind of moving. I am not sure about the 'aimlessly' bit.).
'around' says the letters should be written backwards.
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'mope' backwards is 'epom'.
'epom' enclosing 's' is 'EPSOM'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for epsom that I've seen before include "& 5 Purgative medicine" , "Racecourse near London" , "Derby race track" , "Derby town" , "Mares would triumph here" .)
