Splendid-sounding place for nuts, perhaps? (5)
I believe the answer is:
grate
'place for nuts perhaps?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'splendid-sounding' is the wordplay.
'splendid' becomes 'great' (I've seen this in another clue).
'sounding' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'great' is a homophone of 'GRATE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for grate that I've seen before include "Firebasket" , "Jar; fireplace" , "Reduce to small shreds" , "Shred - jar" , "Rasp; shred" .)
