Part of town is more pleasant, on reflection, after parking in front of court (8)
I believe the answer is:
precinct
'part of town' is the definition.
'precinct' can be an answer for 'town' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'part of' bit.
'more pleasant on reflection after parking in front of court' is the wordplay.
'more pleasant' becomes 'nicer' ('nice' is associated in meaning with 'pleasant').
'on reflection' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'after parking' becomes 'p' (abbreviation on road signs. I am not sure about the 'after' bit.).
'in front of' means one lot of letters go next to another (some letters go in front of others).
'court' becomes 'ct' (abbreviation used in road names).
'nicer' backwards is 'recin'.
'recin' put after 'p' is 'precin'.
'precin'+'ct'='PRECINCT'
'is' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for precinct that I've seen before include "Designated area of US police" , "Enclosed area as around a college" , "Enclosed space around, eg, a cathedral" , "Shopping centre" , "(Semi)enclosed area" .)
