Sign near headland perhaps that is precise and concise? (2,3,5)
I believe the answer is:
to the point
'concise?' is the definition.
('to the point' can be similar in meaning to 'concise')
'sign near headland perhaps that is precise' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'sign' could be 'point' (point is a kind of sign) and 'point' is found in the answer.
'near' could be 'to' (to can mean near or close to) and 'to' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'the' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for to the point that I've seen before include "Direction of taper" , "Pertinent" , "Mean business, so come straight here" , "As far as the punctuation mark is" , "Apposite" .)
