Rebuilt hut, barefoot and panting (3,2,6)
I believe the answer is:
out-of-breath
'panting' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'rebuilt hut barefoot' is the wordplay.
'rebuilt' indicates an anagram.
'hut'+'barefoot'='hutbarefoot'
'hutbarefoot' with letters rearranged gives 'OUT-OF-BREATH'.
'and' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for out-of-breath that I've seen before include "Gasping" , "Panting" .)
