Place and time for badger's retreat (4)
I believe the answer is:
sett
'badger's retreat' is the definition.
'sett' can be an answer for 'retreat' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'badger's' bit.
'place and time' is the wordplay.
'place' becomes 'set' (synonyms).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'set'+'t'='SETT'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sett that I've seen before include "Badger's earth" , "Retreat" , "Badgers' lair" , "Badger's residence" , "beastly accommodation" .)
