'somewhere fresh like milton keynes' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'fresh like milton keynes' is the wordplay.
'fresh' becomes 'new' (synonyms).
'like milton keynes' becomes 'town' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'new'+'town'='NEW TOWN'

Can you help me to learn more?
