I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'roomy english stores close to pork butcher's' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'roomy english stores close to pork butcher's' is the wordplay.
'roomy' becomes 'looe' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'stores' is an insertion indicator.
'close to' indicates one should take the final letters (the 'close' to the word).
The last letters of 'pork butchers' are 'ks'.
'looe'+'e'='looee'
'looee' enclosing 'ks' is 'LOOKSEE'.

Can you help me to learn more?
